Billionaire banks on defeating Bush

[dArKeR]

New York - George Soros' dream is American President George Bush losing in November - and so far, the billionaire philanthropist has donated nearly $13-million (about R78-million) to independent groups that also want to turn that vision into reality. "I'm merely putting my money where my mouth is," Soros said.

After surviving the Nazi occupation of his native Hungary and giving away billions of his self-made fortune to charitable causes, Soros is entering United States national politics in a big way for the first time.

He says he is too disturbed by Bush's policies to do nothing.

"This is not a normal election. These are not normal times," Soros said.
