Barack Obama changes DNC rules, bans Lobbyist donations

Barack Obama, now cast as the Democrats' standard-bearer, moved quickly to put his imprint on the national party Thursday, eager to reinforce its fundraising operation and pursue an aggressive general election campaign. Howard Dean will remain as chairman of the Democratic National Committee, an affirmation by Obama of Dean's bottoms-up rebuilding of the party across all 50 states. Still, Obama is installing one of his top strategists, Paul Tewes, to help expand the DNC staff and oversee party operations. The move puts Obama's ample fundraising machine at the party's disposal. In so doing, Obama imposed on the DNC the same ban on money from federal lobbyists and political action committees that he has placed on his campaign. The DNC has trailed its GOP counterpart in fundraising. Over the past 17 months, the Republican National Committee has raised $166 million to the Democratic National Committee's $82.3 million. The DNC also has spent heavily, leaving little cash on hand while the Republican National Committee has built up its reserves.By keeping Dean as party chairman, Obama ended up taking sides in a long-running dispute between Washington-based Democratic Party leaders and state party officials. Although Obama campaign officials have expressed concern in the past that the party did not have enough money, Obama shares Dean's goal of building the party from the ground up, even in states where Republicans dominate. Dean has spent party resources creating a comprehensive national voter file and placing an average of four staffers in each of the 50 states. The strategy was a hit with state party officials but encountered skepticism in Washington, where some congressional leaders angrily pressed for the party to spend money on winnable contests. In a statement, Obama spokesman Bill Burton said: "Senator Obama appreciates the hard work that Chairman Dean has done to grow our party at the grass-roots level and looks forward to working with him as the chairman of the Democratic Party as we go forward."Dean welcomed Tewes to the DNC, saying he would help the party transition to the general election. "Over the last three years, the DNC staff has worked tirelessly to ensure that the Democratic Party is strong in all 50 states and that we communicate our values to Americans across the country," Dean said in a statement. "The DNC and the Obama campaign are now working together to continue this effort." By banning federal lobbyist and PAC money from the DNC, Obama sought to avoid an inconsistency with his own campaign's fundraising policy. The ban applies to future fundraising, meaning the party won't have to return money it has already raised from lobbyists and PACs. "Today as the Democratic nominee for president, I am announcing that going forward, the Democratic National Committee will uphold the same standard — we will not take a dime from Washington lobbyists," Obama said at a town-hall meeting in Bristol, Va. "We are going to change how Washington works. They will not run our party. They will not run our White House. They will not drown out the views of the American people." Obama is pressing his case that McCain is under the influence of special interests because of his advisers' lobbying ties.McCain's senior advisers are former lobbyists, including campaign manager Rick Davis. McCain was stung last month by the disclosure that two advisers — now gone — had worked for a firm that had represented the military junta in Myanmar, also known as Burma, which has restricted foreign assistance for cyclone victims. The Arizona senator instituted a new lobbying policy that says no campaign staffer can be a registered lobbyist, resulting in three more departures from his campaign, including a top fundraiser, former Texas Rep. Tom Loeffler. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080605/ap_on_el_pr/democrats_money

Aung San Suu Kyi May Be Released

CHAN:Now to Burma, Aung San Suu Kyi was due to be released yesterday. Sunday (May 25) was the official end of her five-year house arrest. Suu Kyi, now 62, has spent 12 of the last 18 years in detention, after being elected Prime Minister in 1989. The walls to her house collapsed after cyclone nargis, but Suu Kyi was unhurt. Here's more:STORY:Supporters of Suu Kyi are hopeful. After all, the junta is appealing for almost 12 billion dollars in foreign aid, and releasing Suu Kyi could be an effective good will gesture to win over potential donors.But some believe that even if she is released, she will be forced out of politics and the public eye. [Debbie Strothard, Alternative ASEAN Network on Burma]:"Well, we think technically she may be released so that the regime is able to follow their own laws. But we don't believe that she will actually be free because they will probably detain her under another law. They may be under pressure to allow donors to meet with her so that they can get their hands on $11.7 billion dollars that they need to reconstruct the area."Suu Kyi is enormously popular among Burmese people, who refer to her as 'the lady,' or using an honorific term meaning 'aunt.' And she might have posed a threat to the military regime in the upcoming 2010 elections, but a clause in the junta's new constitution disqualifies her from ever holding office.[Debbie Strothard, Alternative ASEAN Network on Burma]:"So it is a constitution that is making sure Aung San Suu Kyi could never lead the country. So, it is, it took 14 years for them to make this constitution. Now the regime is claiming that once this constitution is adopted that they will have general elections in 2010. And we have to remind them that general elections doesn't mean just electing generals."Still, the Junta may be under pressure to allow donors to at least meet with Suu Kyi. Suu Kyi's family lives abroad, and she had previously been offered freedom if she would leave the country - an offer she rejected.
