cool! I sent this article on to the folks who are developing the curriculum for our green power training program because we have been focusing only on lithium-ion battery technologies.

Langford was one of several 'officials' who were just tools. When will those seeking 'justice' go up the predator food chain to the Wall Street banking behemoths?

You know granny is old school! We don't believe in laundry service, where people are touching all over your dirty drawers and knowing all your personal business!

Civil Rights Group Teams With Wells Fargo Despite Charges of Predatory Lending

By Alain Sherter | Oct 28, 2009

The National Urban League, founded nearly a century ago, is one of the country’s most respected civil rights organizations. Which is why its choice of participants at the group’s annual “equal opportunity day” awards banquet next month in New York is puzzling in the extreme.

The organizer of, and a speaker at, the dinner is Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf. Wells, you may recall, faces lawsuits from the state of Illinois and the city of Baltimore for allegedly discriminating against African-Americans and Latinos in their lending practices. The NAACP also has filed suit against the company, along with HSBC, charging Wells with “systematic, institutionalized racism in subprime home mortgage lending.”

Specifically, Wells is accused of steering minorities into pricier subprime mortgages. A 2008 investigation by the Chicago Reporter found that Wells Fargo in 2005 issued African-American borrowers higher-cost mortgages 37 percent of the time, compared with about 5 percent for white borrowers. Among its other findings was that black homeowners earning more than $100,000 a year were more likely to get high-cost loans than white homeowners earning less than $35,000.

“As a result of its discriminatory and illegal mortgage lending practices, Wells Fargo transformed our cities’ predominantly African-American and Latino neighborhoods into ground zero for subprime lending,” said Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan in a statement in filing suit against Wells in July. “The dreams of many hardworking families have ended in foreclosure due to Wells Fargo’s illegal and unfair conduct.”

Read the time article on the first marriage, got to say as people, them Obamas are some nice people and hope God continues to give them strength to make it. I agree that struggle makes the relationship sweet if you invest time and love in it. MY favorite part was that the first grandma does the laundry, she refuses to let the staff do laundry….. LOVE IT OLD SCHOOL

Saw your response under the Valerie Jarrett thread. Not trying to start a ruckus. You and RobM are just exploring the family tree. No problem with that.
