lexus97 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/02/25/jeremy-bernard-white-house-social-secretary_n_828314.html?ir=Politics Jeremy Bernard, currently the chief of staff to the U.S. ambassador to France, will be named White House Social Secretary -- the third person to have the job during President Obama's tenure and the very first male to ever hold the position. The Washington Post reports Bernard and his former partner Rufus Gifford (Bernard is openly gay) were some of the first supporters of Obama in California. Jonathan Capehart writes, "They raised a ton of money for him through their company, B&G Associates. Gifford went on to become finance director of the Democratic National Committee. Bernard was the White House liaison at the National Endowment for the Humanities before dashing off to his Paris post in November." Bernard was preceded by Desiree Rogers and Julianna Smoot. At the beginning of the month, the New York Times speculated that a man would be next in line for the job, however Bernard wasn't named. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
