If it were set up correctly any money given could be returned if she decided not to run.
I would happily chip in $25 or so a month for the next two years. If enough people did that she would have a considerable jump on the rest of the pack.
It could also be set up so that anytime prior to a certain point a contributor that became disenchanted with her and her run for office could get back a portion of their contributions to date.
Just an idea. The more we can do to make a public spectacle of our support for her the less likely a lot of people would be interested in taking her on, especially if she were well funded.
I know a lot of what we feel for her right now is frustration with a system that has grown to be a threat to our very way of life. A system where many of us feel as though we have no longer have any say-so in the way our country is run. A system that has relegated us to political obscurity. We are ready for someone to come along, as did Ronald Reagan, and use their skills to lead us.
She could well turn out not to be that person, and if that's the case then so be it. But until she has gone off the reservation far enough to change my mind, she's the person for the job!
