 Field Trip to hear. . .\n\n Author Nomi Prins:\n All the President's 
 Bankers: The Hidden Alliances that Drive American Power\n\n The 
 relationship between Washington and Wall Street isn't really a revolving 
 door. It's a merry-go-round. \n\n Based on original archival presidential 
 correspondence, All the Presidents' Bankers: The Hidden Alliances that 
 Drive American Power exposes a century of tight, personal relationships and 
 interdependence between America's past 19 presidents (from Teddy Roosevelt 
 to Barack Obama) and key bankers (from J.P. Morgan to Jamie Dimon) even 
 including intermarriage. It explores the shocking ways in which the same 
 people, through blood, mentorship and other symbiotic collaborations 
 impacted American domestic and foreign policy and shaped the nation's 
 status as a super-power. Prins's book examines how these relationships have 
 effected the establishment of the Federal Reserve, two world wars, the Cold 
 War, Vietnam, the Iran hostage crisis, and all the international economic 
 crises from the Panic of 1907 through today. It divulges the historical 
 alignment of the White House and Wall Street, and presents a haunting 
 examination of America's geneology of power.\n\n This unprecedented history 
 of American power illuminates how the same financiers retained their 
 authoritative position through history, swaying presidents regardless of 
 party affiliation. All the Presidents' Bankers explores the alarming global 
 repercussions of a system lacking barriers between public office and 
 private power. Prins leaves us with an ominous choice: either we break the 
 alliances, or they will break us. \n\n Nomi Prins is an American author, 
 journalist, and Senior Fellow at Demos. She has worked as a director at 
 Goldman-Sachs and as an analyst at Bear Stearns.\n\n It Takes a Pillage: 
 Behind the Bonuses, Bailouts, and Backroom Deals from Washington to Wall 
 Street was her loudest whistleblower book. . . so 
 far.\n\nhttp://www.kpfa.org/events/kpfa-radio-941fm-presents-nomi-prins-all-presidents'-bankers-hidden-alliances-drive-american-\n
