Just amazing. You don't see the contradiction in your post.
Obama recieves 150 million dollars in donations of 200 or less and you call him just another Corporate Puppet.
That's just classic denial.

Yep, it's just $200 individuals contributing. Don't fool yourself Tech, Obamassia is in the pocket of Corps just as McCain is, and from the looks of it, it's the financial sector and lawyers.


I added that up and got ~$8 million. And I assume that's total? And to date, he's raised over what? $500M?

So the top contributors (individuals donating through Corporations' PACs) to his campaign comprise ~1.5% of total donations? Even less if you remove Universities.

Man, it doesn't take much to be a corporate shill these days. My credit card gives me 1.5% cash back, so I assume I'm in their pocket as well?


Sorry, but it's hard to deny the fact that individuals like and are donating to Obama, for whatever reasons.
