I'm not too worried about the group anyway, we have our donation meter and that's what really matters. The group is here

A person can be too young, why can't they be too old? There are many old-person brain ailments. It is unnatural for humans to live so long. Old-people are better as advisors.

Please keep this on topic of donating to Obama only. Anything outside of this topic is subject to removal. It will be much easier for those who give to get credit and discuss donations if we don't have to sift through a bunch of other crap.

i see we're getting nowhere fast, eric!

may be a while before we reach $1000!
i think a lot depends on if obama helps hillary pay her debt.
people are really against that.

me included.
but i'll still donate when i can.
to me, it's a LOT more important to get obama in the white house.
and i don't want him to be hobbled by the clinton debt issue.

but, i'm pragmatic that way.

Yesterday when I received the email about Obama turning down public funds I immediately did what I've been intending to do, join the PG group and make another donation.

This is EXACTLY the biggest reason I'm for Obama, kicking the old corporate money strings in the balls and pushing them out the door.

I only hope he continues this philosophy and applies it to the rest of government when he's in the White House.

I keep hearing nay sayers talk about how Obama can't really change anything as president, that presidents don't really have that much control... well what the hell just happened over the past 8 years? A redneck moron sitting in the oval office broke just about every rule our nation used to hold sacred. Starting an unprovoked war, torture, spying on it's own people, imprisonment without trial... and that's all fine? But a man comes along that not only talks the talk but is walking the walk of setting this country back on track, and they claim a president can't really change anything?

Bull.

I love the headlines about McSame's reaction to this:

"McCain attacks Obama for rejecting public funding -- may do same"

Looks like I'm not the only one that was inspired by his announcement:



The goal was 50,000 by the Fourth of July, over 49,000 responded in less than 24 hours.

Who says we can't change things with this kind of backing?

Sweet! Thanks for you donation too dude. I don't think it made it to our PG tracker but it all goes to the same place.

I think it's a little confusing because if you click on our "group" there is only one donation button and it doesn't link to our tracker. I may just pull that link.

Dang. That's the one I used.
How can we see our tracker?

Is there anyway our tracker can still get credit for the $100,000 I just donated?

You have to go here Barack Obama : : Change We Can Believe In I pulled our group link from this thread because it obviously doesn't show our tracker. It's cool though man, it all goes to our man either way.
