[EL] Jim DeMint and Heritage Foundation's 501(c)(3) status

[Aaron Blake]

There seems to be some chatter that DeMint might increase his
political power at the Heritage Foundation.

My question is, does the fact that Heritage is a 501(c)(3) affect
that? Doesn't that mean he has less latitude to get involved with
political campaigns, etc.? Can he even endorse candidates?

Anybody have some thoughts on this?

Best,
