And you forgot Obama's main economic man Larry Summers. Summers is buddy-buddy with Bob Rubin (Goldman?). And it was Summers who undid Glass-Steagal while working for Clinton. He was a massive de-regulator.
And last but not least, Rahm Immanuel was a billion-dollar investment banker.

Of course his administration has "ties to the oligarchy." Name a single modern administration that didn't. That doesn't mean that his administration is beholden to the oligarchy or that his election is due to the power of the oligarchy (as Waters claims).
