Low Dollar Fundraisers

I just read on a thread that Edwards is hosting a $15 dollar a head fundraiser, and there was a response that Hillary has hosted a $20 a head fundraiser.
That seems like such a fantastic idea to me. So much more accessible than the $500 dinner and the $1000 Vip Package. Do any of you know if Biden does or has done that? That's something we could potentially all do for him, depending on what the minimum $$$ would need to be to make it worth his while to attend.

I saw a YouTube video where Gravel went to some guy's dorm room to be interviewed -- that was impressive. Just Gravel and the kid having a conversation. Very cool.

1. The expensive fundraisers are really a turnoff

It makes a candidate look so elite and beyond the average voter's grasp.

2. Biden is the only candidate that I have not received a solicitation in the mail from either.

Well - with the exception of Gravel.

Big mistake. Those $25.oo checks can add up.
I have even offered to mail them out.
I was told then that they were concentrating on big $$.

Maybe I will offer again.
Maybe they will be more open to it now.
