"The top donor group for libertarian Paul was the U.S. Air Force, with 10 contributors. That probably reflects connections made through Paul’s father Ron—the former Congressman and presidential candidate—who was a USAF flight surgeon early in his career. Paul’s next biggest sources of donors: IBM (IBM), Wells Fargo and Microsoft."

Here we go again... Paul is the only candidate who has a branch of the military at the top of their donation lists.

10 contributors? That's all?

Eleven if you count someone teaching on an air base. I think there's another DoDDS teacher contributing, too, but I'm not sure if that person is on an air base.

So Rand's the only one with a military branch at the top ... but that doesn't mean Rand raised the most from the military. I could see Cruz with more, but he also raised more from other companies that topped AF.

Why would more members from the military donate to Cruz? Because they want to risk their lives defending Israel?

IBM, Wells Fargo and Microsoft?

Did any representatives from these companies make any comments about Rand prior to making their donations?

Yeah, I forgot about how 100% of the military are Rand Paul supporters.

He drew more donations in general, so I could see him having more military support overall, despite less support as a percentage.
