Ron Paul is Dangerous and Ought to Be Elected   
I can't figure out why it would be wrong to accept donations from some 
organizations but not from others though. I think Maria Hinajosa got him 
good when she asked about donations.

""..."Ron Paul's campaign is so extraordinary to many of us because even 
while it was getting massive online traffic, you'd be lucky to get a whisper 
of his campaign in a lot of media outlets," said Zephyr Teachout, Howard 
Dean's former online organizer and now a Duke University professor....""

It should be good.

Barack and Huck on Face da Nation.

Ron Paul's voting record exactly matches his election campaign
platform.......a return to CONSTITUTIONAL government and an IMMEDIATE
end to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

He has no big corporate donars only GRASS ROOTS supporters who raised
more money in one day than any candidate in history.

The majority of Dr. Paul's donations so far have come from the US
MILITARY.

The ZIONIST controlled MSM are/will do anything they can to diminish
the campaign of Ron Paul.

The response to MH's question troubled me. It indicated he was fearful of 
the question or how to respond to it. Rather than respond IMO a weak fashion 
I would have liked him to ask Maria, "Maria, which other candidates have you 
asked that question of?". Once she hedged, I would have liked him to state 
firmly, "I will accept donations from anyone who is willing to donate."

I still don't see the reason why some donations are acceptable while others 
are not. This applies to no other groups, including corporate or special 
interests of all types. Addressing this issue honestly may have opened up 
debate about campaign contributions and how they affect legislation. It 
would also have served as a perfect opportunity to highlight media 
hypocrisy. In subsequent interviews he had a better response which was along 
the lines of, "are we expected to investigate the background of everyone who 
contributes to a campaign?".

Absolutely correct, and they are trying their sleazy best to blot him
out.
I have given a sizeable chunk of change to the Paul campaign.
