Since the early 1990s, a group of large foundations has been laying the groundwork for the emergence of campaign finance reform as a serious issue: The Joyce Foundation of Chicago, the Florence and John Schumann Foundation, George Soros’s Open Society Institute, and the Carnegie Corporation, to name just a few.
The Florence and John Schumann Foundation, by contrast, is open about its support for campaign finance reform—for the most part.
The 800-pound gorillas of the group of foundations active in campaign finance reform are the $4.8 billion Pew Charitable Trusts and the $14.6 billion Ford Foundation.

The Florence Fund, headed by John Moyers, in turn derives its support from the Schumann Foundation, whose president is John's father Bill Moyers- the prominent host of "Frontline" and other PBS shows.
Few individuals or even businesses have assets comparable to the $90.2 million that the Schumann Foundation held at the end of 1998 according to Greve (that amount is undoubtedly much greater now), available exclusively to devote to partisan advocacy.
Now that Moyers has set his son (formerly executive director of the Schumann Foundation) up as president of his own "fund" (while supporting that fund with Schumann donations), the ethical conflict-of-interest tangle grows.

 The March of the Davidsbündler against the Philistines
Schumann likewise encouraged the compositions of Mendelssohn, John Field, Chopin, and Brahms, bringing them to the attention of the public through his journal, just as his fiancee Clara did through her stature as a concert artist.
As the young Schumann was a student of her father's, she grew up not only with the influence of the young composer, but in the midst of the great ferment which was the last revival of the classical tradition passed down by Mozart and Beethoven.
Schumann attacked the compositions of Wagner on the grounds that they were simply bad music: in Schumann's words, "paltry, downright amateurish, formless, and repellent." What Schumann did not address is that members of the European oligarchy had made the decision to promote Wagner, financially and otherwise, on political grounds.

 John Sichel's Program Notes
Clara Schumann was the ‘other half’ of the most famous husband-and-wife one-two punch in music history.
Clara, and Mendelssohn, on the other hand, represented a retrenchment of sorts, not a rejection of romantic aesthetics, but an attempt to preserve, assimilate and use as models, the works of the classical greats.
There certainly is an element of truth to this view, as Clara did give up on, or cut back on her composition after her marriage, and yet she did continue her career as a top-rate concert pianist and chamber musician-- while mothering eight children.

Perhaps the Schumann Foundation wants to cut costs so that it can continue to shower largesse on TomPaine.com (Executive Director, John Moyers, Bill's son).
Despite its ability to curry favor with corporate and foundation boardrooms (the interlocking directorates of the liberal-left elite), despite subventions from the Schumann foundation that amount to $10 million (according to the Washington Post), the task of maintaining both a serious left politics and a sense of fun has proved beyond them.
THE BOARD of the Schumann Foundation (president, Bill Moyers) met on Thursday to settle on a strategy that would allow one of its most expensive projects--the leftish American Prospect magazine--to survive in the current political climate.
