It’s legitimate to raise money from American expatriates on foreign soil. George Clooney is doing it for Obama.

What Obama did, which angered us, was to accept donations that we suspect came from abroad, under patently fictious names, doing so by disabling the gatekeeping mechanisms in the online donation system etc. In other words, in 2008 he got a lot of money from real foreigners but laundered through a layer or two. Whether he’s still doing that now, I don’t know. But raising money among expats is not wrong.

Of course, thanks for the clarification.

Also, congrats on being the first on this thread to have actually read the article. I share your questioning of what exactly happened.
