written the Department of Justice demanding a criminal investigation of
the “American Issues Project.”Sen. Barack Obama has launched an all-out effort to block a Republican billionaire’s

television ads.Obama’s campaign has written the Department of Justice demanding a
criminal investigation of the “American Issues Project,” the vehicle
through which Dallas investor Harold Simmons is financing the advertisements.
