All the politicins get millions plus, so I don't think Obama was any different. If you check out McCain, the Clintons, etc., they received a lot of money, too.
I do think that President Obama got small donations from the "little people" and the money did not all come from the wealthy millionaires.
I doubt very much that the crooks, namely Madoff, donated to Obama's campaign as these very wealthy guys were afraid to have Obama get the presidency. They knew his agenda and it was not for the wealthy people.
I think Barack is sincere, very intelligent, and taking on a big job of reform in the U.S. In 4 years, this will be a better place to live because of him.
He has his pulse on many, many issues. He even recognized the fact that New Kensington Windows went bankrupt and Serious Windows from CA took over the company. Barack acknowledged the fact that the company brought back many of the former employees and applauded the company for doing that.
I welcome any comments or further discussions about this topic. Thanks.
