Third day after Kucinich fund-raising day and no figures.
Nothing on the website: http://www.dennis4president.com/home/

No email of thanks.

I contributed through ActBlue because the Kucinich website payment system was having unspecified trouble.

Am I missing something?

This is changing my opinion, at least of Kucinich's campaign staff.

If Iowa is any indication, there's probably only one guy in his pajamas at home who's responsible for crunching the numbers, and thanking the donors.

5. Correction. I WAS missing something. Results are available...
just not on the main dennis4president website.

I hope his staff uses the money to spread his ideas, not push his candidacy.

The low figure (at least compared to Ron Paul's one-day fundraising) means that a Kucinich
victory is less likely, not more likely.

SIGH.

6. I find it sad to see how money is running this country
to the extent that it does.

It rules EVERY choice we have.


So, a good candidate that cares about the folks without all that money, cannot get elected because he is not supported by those that have all the money. Tells you something about us, doesn't it?

Those that have, get more, the rest...well clearly we don't work hard enough/pray enough or are just unworthy,right?

*sigh*

9. ....and how can we ever change it??
That's what bothers me even more.

We are locked into this rotten system of choosing candidates based on their bankroll.

:mad:
