Fear not, citizen, the President has your interests at heart. That's why he's wooing Wall Street.

 Hosted by Abe Proctor.  (Joe Uris is off for the Summer...)

 

It's been estimated that the winner of the 2012 presidential election will need to spend $1 billion to do it. In 2008, the financial sector, realizing it had been the catalyst for the economic meltdown, realized Barack Obama was a winner and decided to back him. This time around, he's making sure they back him again.

Of course, none of those responsible for the financial meltdown have gone to jail. Now that the president is courting them, will they ever?
