Hillary Clinton recently announced that she will be appointing long-time Monsanto lobbyist Jerry Crawford as adviser to her Ready for Hillary super PAC.
Crawford has mostly worked with Democratic politicians in the past, but has also put his support behind Republican candidates as well. Anyone who was willing to support Monsantos goals would receive support from Crawford.
In the past, Crawford has worked with Bill Clinton, Al Gore, John Kerry and Bill Northey. Over the years, Crawford has been instrumental in fighting against small farmers in court and protecting Monsantos seed monopoly.
Just last week it was reported that Hillary Clinton is attempting to repolish her image and paint herself as a champion of the common people. She is planning to make toppling the 1% one of her primary campaign selling points, although she is obviously a part of the same ruling class that she is speaking against, and receives massive contributions from some of the most corrupt aristocratic organizations in the world.

I dont know of any party regulars or activists who are really pushing anyone else, says Jerry Crawford, who co-chaired Clintons 2008 campaign in Iowa and helps lead Ready for Hillary in the state.
