Curious Friends: How Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg Can Help Republicans

Without his partnership with Mark Zuckerberg, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie wouldn’t have had his first Oprah moment. The Facebook founder’s $100 million donation to Newark, N.J., schools was the subject of a 2010 episode that positively portrayed the conservative governor, along with Newark Mayor Cory Booker, on national television.
So now that Zuckerberg is co-starting a political advocacy group, could he provide the same benefit for other Republicans?
Zuckerberg and Joe Green, his close friend and college roommate, are establishing a 501(c)4 organization that will initially focus on comprehensive immigration and education reform, according to a source familiar with the group’s plans.
The group is wading into topics conducive to bipartisanship. Immigration reform has made Sens. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Marco Rubio, R-Fla., unlikely allies. Education, another issue ripe for bipartisan efforts, brought the liberal Bookerand conservative Christie together.
