Reply:There's a problem if the U.S. Army, Navy and Air Force are contributing to Paul's campaign. I believe that violates campaign finance laws. Furthermore, the U.S. Army, Navy and Air Force are federally funded by U.S. tax payers and therefore they shouldn't be spending a single dime on political campaigns.
Perhaps the contributions come from individuals who serve in the armed forces, but that's not what the listing implies.
As for the point about the presidential candidates... I think it says this: Clinton, McCain and Obama are considered "serious" candidates and are therefore likely to draw money from company PACS (many of whom donate to every serious candidate, although perhaps to differing levels) while Paul is not considered a serious candidate and will therefore have to rely on individual contributions and contributions from a few companies who are willing to contribute regardless of the candidate's prospects at winning.
Reply:site your sources please, I don't think the Armed Services as a group are allowed to publicly back a candidate, they're supposed to keep it to themselves.
Reply:That they are all bought and paid for?, except, well, do i need to say his name.
Some of us can't be bought, not for sale.
Reply:Nicely put. I only wish he had a chance of getting elected this government really needs to get gutted. To many fat cats that would fix the election though.
Reply:T79a is correct as the mother of three Navy Chief's I can tell you they are not suppose to back any candidate publicly, they are to keep opinions to themselves at least while on active duty.....
Reply:Very telling but Clinton is out so that gives us Obummer, McSame or Dr. Ron Paul a voice of reason. Write-in a vote for Ron Paul 2008!
Reply:It tells me McCain is a b*tch to the lobbyists.
Reply:looks like we have capitalist roaders and imperialists on the roster.
Reply:Nothing, but it lets us know that you are biased and incorrect.
Reply:Didn't you already ask this question before?
Reply:It tells me that as Americans we must unite and elect Paul.
Reply:google likes ron paul?
Reply:Ron Paul %26lt;%26lt;%26lt; we need him.
Reply:Easy- Clinton and Obama are full of baloney; Paul is a nut case and McCain is a successful American who stands up and tells you the facts- not what you want to hear about himself.
Reply:Why did you leave out McCain's military service, but listed Pauls?
Also, Google is run by leftwingers
