Bomb"
Newest donation drive scheduled this Sunday

Close to 1000 people have pledged to donate $100 or more to the
Ron Paul presidential campaign this Sunday in the latest online
donation drive.
Scheduled for Veterans Day, the drive marks the
fact that more in the military have reportedly given to Ron Paul
than any other candidate.
The latest unofficial grassroots donation drive
is being organised through the website http://www.thisnovember11th.com/
While it is unlikely to repeat the amazing success
of the November 5th "money bomb", the veterans day donation
drive highlights an important difference between Ron Paul and
any other candidate on either side.
According to a Houston
Chronicle analysis of campaign records from January
through September, Paul received $63,440 in donations from current
military employees and several retired military personnel.

The average size of Paul's contributions from military
sources is $500, with donations ranging from $50 to the maximum
$2,300.
More than a third of Paul's military-related contributions
came from Army affiliates, according to the analysis; a third
came from the Air Force; and a fourth from Navy donors. The rest
came from affiliates of the Marines and other branches.
The Congressman has campaigned on a strong anti-war
and anti-interventionism platform and has pledged to withdraw
US troops from the middle east should he be elected. Paul has
also outlined his belief in a strong national defense focused
on protecting the borders.
Commenting
on the unprecedented and record breaking $4.2 million that was
raised on Monday Ron Paul simply said , Americans “don’t
like the war.”
