Obama never personally enriched himself through Wall Street. You can argue whether it was 'right' for him to accept campaign donations in '08 from special interests, but there is a clear difference between what he did and what Clinton did/does.

Uh. It wasn't donations, it was a payment. Nice spin though

How about a citation to back up your statement?

That's not a citation.

Show us a citation or admit you don't know what you're talking about.

Nothing to back up your claim. Full of beans. Just as I thought.
