Obama has appointed former Monsanto lobbyist Michael Taylor to a key role to the US FDA (Food and Drug Administration).

This is a catastrophic appointment which unfortunately affects everyone in the world, as we all end up eating whatever bad stuff gets grown and produced in the US. I have put up a rushed profile of Taylor on SpinProfiles
http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php/Michael_Taylor
but there is much more to say, especially about his crafting of the FDA¹s policy on GM foods:

We urgently need to get good information about this man to activists and concerned people around the world.

I am happy to help with links to get you started.

Thanks everyone and best wishes
