Tha maximum you can give is $2000 so billionaires dont matter
"George Soros, the billionaire New York philanthropist, has made maximum donations in the past to both candidates, for instance, and last week he faced a choice: support Mr. Obama, who created his committee on Tuesday, or stay neutral and see what Mrs. Clinton and others had to say. In this case, Mr. Obama won.
Mr. Soros sent the maximum contribution, $2,100, to Mr. Obama, the first-term senator from Illinois, just hours after he declared his plans to run.
“Soros believes that Senator Obama brings a new energy to the political system and has the potential to be a transformational leader,” said Michael Vachon, a spokesman for Mr. Soros."
* Many rich donors will give $2000 to every single Dem candidate they like, currying favor with them all. When I was raising money for Kerry I noticed some of our donors were also giving to Dean and Edwards. Some were even giving to Bush. |
