Sam R. Walton is the yuppy, liberal son of Robson Walson.
Like Ronald Reagan’s son and many other sons and grandsons of conservative icons, he was brainwashed in college and is now a liberal. The children of Sam Walton, like their father, have always been stanch CONSERVATIVES and members of the Repubican Party. Democrats hate Walmart because the store refuses to be unionized.

The Walton family, which owns Walmart, has already donated $624,100 to Republican candidates and Super PACs this cycle, according to disclosure data analyzed by the Center for Responsive Politics. Ninety percent of those donations went to support GOP presidential candidates.

Jim Walton, the son of Walmart founder Sam Walton and the eighth richest man in America according to Forbes, initially put his money behind Jon Huntsman. The billionaire gave $2,500 to Huntsman’s campaign and $100,000 to Our Destiny PAC, which supported Huntsman. But after Huntsman’s campaign floundered, Walton switched his support to Romney, dumping $200,000 into the pro-Romney Super PAC Restore Our Future and another $2,500 into the Romney campaign.

Walton’s sister-in-law Christy split her campaign contributions among two GOP contenders, both of which were among the first four candidates to drop out of the race. In November she showed some billionaire love for Jon Huntsman, giving $50,000 to the Super Pac supporting him and $2,500 to his campaign.

Days after then-candidate Herman Cain was accused of sexual harassment, Walton donated the legal maximum of $2,500 to his campaign.

Alice Walton, the daughter of Sam Walton, has kept all of her donations fixed on Romney, giving the maximum $2,500 to his campaign and an additional $200,000 to the Super PAC supporting him.

None of the Waltons have donated to Democrats, Federal Election Commission reports show.
