Actually, most of Obama's contributions come from individuals- and he is getting a ton from small contributors (Hillary has more from PACs and big "bundlers").
BTW, corporations can't give directly to a candidate, though they can give to PACs (Obama has received less than $1 million from PACs/Other- less than 0.5% percent of his contributions).
Just because you don't agree with Obama doesn't mean "all his money comes from corporations."
If you want to see for yourself: http://www.opensecrets.org/pres08/index.asp?cycle=2008
We need to watch successful operations, whether we like them or not, and learn from them- Obama's campaign and moveon are good examples.
Sorry my standards are higher than yours.. I never said all btw, I said most. The big law firms are often told they need to donate to this candidate, and they get around it that way. So indirectly, it IS the corporations donating.
I don't accept politicians sucking balls for special interests at all. That is why Obama can hit the highway.
Ron Paul destroys Obama in every category. Obama is not a lower substitute, so get that out of your head. He's part of the problem. And one of the most corrupt politicians in Washington. Yeaaa, want me to bother go find the link? He's top 10.
Furthermore, opensecrets contends that Ron Paul has left the race. They ALSO contend that Obama's financial reports are more TRANSPARENT than Ron Pauls.. thats a fken joke.
The reason they are successful is MSM. Period. Without that, and MASSIVE financial backing by soros etc. they're nothing behind their candidate - cus he's nothing himself.
