The largest Barack Obama group on Face Book has over 300,000 members. Ron Paul’s 12,000 sound like small potatoes in comparison…at first glance. Our group just finished meeting a $12,008 fundraising goal within 5 days of its inception (the deadline was 6/30). 5 days. Obama's group of 300K also has a fundraiser and has raised $17,000 — since the founding of the group! That's well over 90 days. Publicly displayed records show that Obama's group had about 700 contributors (which is a .2% participation rate). Ron Paul's group has approx 12,300 members at present and met our target with 155 contributors (1% participation rate).
