Bill Clinton and his HUD Secretary Andrew Cuomo are the ones who started the push. Barney Frank and organizations like ACORN are the ones who really forced it on the banks.
By the way, that also shows you what a phony liar Bill Clinton is when he goes on TV hawking for Obama by saying the Romney's policies are the ones that got us in the mess. Clinton started this ridiculous push for home ownership by people who couldn't afford it and he signed the repealing of Glass-Steagel. Just like Clinton, never let those pesky facts get in the way of his rhetoric.
