A riddle

What Presidential candidate's adopted son resigned this past July for "personal reasons" from Silver State Bank, in Nevada--the one that was seized this past Friday evening by the FDIC?


Clue: His father owns WAY more than one home.

Clue No. 2: It's close to Arizona.


Find the answer here (as though you need it): http://www.reuters.com/article/ousiv/idUSN0530678420080906

From the article: "The failure is expected to cost the FDIC deposit insurance fund between $450 million and $550 million."

Translation: at or near one-half billion dollars.



God, if we lose the election, I'll never be able to explain it--or figure it out.
