WASHINGTON — A few weeks before announcing his re-election campaign, President Obama convened two dozen Wall Street executives, many of them longtime donors, in the White House’s Blue Room.

The guests were asked for their thoughts on how to speed the economic recovery, then the president opened the floor for over an hour on hot issues like hedge fund regulation and the deficit.

Mr. Obama, who enraged many financial industry executives a year and a half ago by labeling them “fat cats” and criticizing their bonuses, followed up the meeting with phone calls to those who could not attend.

The event, organized by the Democratic National Committee, kicked off an aggressive push by Mr. Obama to win back the allegiance of one of his most vital sources of campaign cash — in part by trying to convince Wall Street that his policies, far from undercutting the investor class, have helped bring banks and financial markets back to health.

actually, your post is a troll post and lousy one at that

care to comment or are you once again going to turn the other way when your limousine liberals get in bed with the "fat cats" of wall street and campaign from the white house
 
you ass clowns/poor people think that's how it is.

Look up Plutocracy

It's the uber rich vs the rest of us, this shit is for show

Obama and Bush went to bat for the billionaires, nobody bats for the middle class.

TROLL
 
you aren't even a funny troll just weak
always with the weak ass hack attempts at libtards

Wall St. donated way more to Obama than the fossil

I'd ask if you've been asleep, it's obvious
 
It was (the heads of) Wall St that really gave Obama seed money for his campaign. They didn't like or trust McCain and they thought Palin was an idiot. Hillary had some supporters but the big hitters like Jamie Dimon were able to get some Hillary supporters over to Obama's side. Obama won over a lot of the Wall St people during his meetings with them.

Obviously any President is going to have to deal with the heads of Wall St but Obama has had for the most part a very good relationship with them.
 
If you want to run fro president you have to court the people that will pay for it. The people with the money are the banksters.
