Marc (+John and Jake for awareness) -

As John and Jake know, I am wearing two hats this fall - both continuing as
a senior policy advisor to the campaign and spending at least 1 day a week
overseeing a new non-profit that I co-founded with Chris Edley, called The
Opportunity Institute (located in Berkeley, CA).  The non-profit is housing
an initiative - Too Small to Fail - that has a partnership with the Clinton
Foundation.

I would like your advice about how to make sure I draw very careful lines
in my campaign and non-profit work.  I also have pro-bono counsel for the
non-profit and could ask them to be sure to develop clear guidance for me
and my non-profit team, but wanted to start with a conversation with you.

This may be more of a perception issue than a legal issue, but I want to be
very careful and sensitive about any real or perceived conflicts in the
work.

Would you be available to talk with me about this issue?  I'm particularly
sensitive to it right now because I'm going to Tulsa, Oklahoma on Monday to
meet with George Kaiser on behalf of the campaign as part of a Finance trip
to raise funds.  George, however, is still an active and current funder of
the non-profit.

Thanks for your help,
Ann
