5. Quite a few times.
And quite a few more in my family.

An investment of a couple hundred dollars in getting a good president is a total bargain. Even in self-interested terms.

20. Yup.
I give what I can about once a month and have been from the start.

Also, I'm happy to note that I personally know two people who recently donated the max -- their first time ever donating to any political candidate.

25. This is encouraging and will make it easier to part with a few more bucks
Actually, Obama's been outperforming all my other investments by a long shot.

26. But America Doesn't Know it!
I have been canvasing for BO for some time. One of the reasons I am a BO supporter is because he is independent of the power brokers and is being financed so much by people like me. However, when I go from door-to-door, this is not a well known fact. Today for example, I was speaking to someone who has not made up his mind. When I started talking about where his money is coming from, he was surprised. I think he will be voting with us, but who can be sure.

Sometimes I wonder where all that money is going as not that much information is getting to the country.
