So looking at 2nd clinton email q posted, I was curious who Scott Deyo was.

Came across this thread from last year at ats that had some interesting info
http:// www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread1163509/pg1
Justin Deyo is an M.A. candidate in the Security Studies Program at Georgetown University, with a concentration in Technology and Security.
Mr. Deyo most recently served as special assistant to the senior director for Strategic Planning on the National Security Staff at the White House, where he developed an interest the global proliferation of emerging and disruptive technologies.
Prior to this assignment, he advanced the Secretary of State’s worldwide travel as special assistant in the State Department’s Executive Secretariat.
Mr. Deyo also served as watchstander in the State Department Operations Center, where he facilitated the Secretary of State’s global communications, briefed the Secretary and other senior officials on world events, and provided crisis management support.
From 2006 to 2008, Mr. Deyo served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Ukraine, where he taught English, reviewed grant proposals, and co-hosted an English language television show.
He also worked on electoral governance issues as a research assistant at the Woodrow Wilson Center and interned for New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. Mr. Deyo graduated magna cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa from Syracuse University with undergraduate degrees in International Relations and Geography.
He speaks proficient Russian and functional German.
So here we have a guy that nobody has heard of that interned with HRC while working on electoral governance research (for those that don't know what electoral governance is here is a key component "a proper understanding of electoral governance must take into account the role of conflict resolution, especially for disputed elections". Well….that is an interesting field of study to have in your pocket and coincidentally work for the person doing just that while SoS facilitating all of her global communications.
So the real awesomeness, besides this tie to HRC, is what he was doing when he developed an interest in "global proliferation of emerging and disruptive technologies"….he was special assistant to the senior director for Strategic Planning on the National Security Staff at the White House.
Oddly, he speaks proficient Russian and worked in the Ukraine for a while.
Anywho…like I said, I don't know if there is a connection to him and Cendyn's Founder Charles Deyo, but I remembered seeing the name Deyo in wikileaks so I went back and searched and found Justin Deyo.
Strangely he is almost non-existent outside of linked Bio on him and the wikileaks docs on him.

So that company has quote the list of heavy hitters….including Tony Podesta…
CNAS People
So CNAS Mission Statement just for kicks:
Bold. Innovative. Bipartisan.
The Center for a New American Security (CNAS) is an independent, bipartisan, nonprofit organization that develops strong, pragmatic, and principled national security and defense policies. CNAS engages policymakers, experts, and the public with innovative, fact-based research, ideas, and analysis to shape and elevate the national security debate. A key part of our mission is to inform and prepare the national security leaders of today and tomorrow.

A bit about CNAS from a "current" BoA member: Peter Feaver
The Clinton faction within the party seems to be less willing to engage in happy talk, or at least that is the inference I draw from the recent announcement that the Center for New American Security’s (CNAS) annual conference topic will be “A World in Turmoil: Charting America’s Course.” When CNAS was founded, it was widely considered to be the “Clinton national security team in waiting,” but when Obama overtook Clinton, it proved to be the “Democratic national security team in waiting.” Most of the senior players in CNAS have served in the Obama administration in some capacity in the past six years and many are expected to serve in any new Clinton administration as well. (Full disclosure: I have published several pieces through CNAS and, at one time, was on their Board of Advisors. I am told I still am, though the website has forgotten me — temporarily, I hope!) CNAS is probably as good a window into the thinking of the Clinton national security team as we have.
