How much money did you get from Democrats?
You should look elsewhere? He probably has a lot on his hands.
Really? That’s your basis. I NEVER send a check to a kooky charity that sends me mail. I’m not sure about Lamar for 1000 different reasons, but this is not one of them. Perhaps you’ve been reading some Alinsky?
NOT a reason to vote against.
the country is turning into s*** here at home and all you have to worry about is in AFRICA?
for someone who has been here so long its hard to figure how a troll could have slipped into the cracks.
This is a very manipulatively written piece. Why was it written this way?
Scam artist is pissed because he couldn’t scam Lamar. Notice he put his travel expenses first when listing what the money is for.
Sounds like he has never voted for a republican,rino or other.
That might be one of the sensible things Lamar Alexander has done. You want to spend money on African youth who will, in turn, hate America and participate in our demise. Boo that.
Perhaps the whiniest thing I have ever read on FR.
Carr looks weak coming out of the gate. His ad standing in front of a dam was weak and in my view foolish.
Of all the things to go after a dam far away from Tennessee is perhaps low on the list of things that matter. The attack was very weak and ineffective. Essentially, it was a wasted effort.
Alexander probably figured this letter-sending person was another Nigerian prince on a mission to relieve Americans of some their money.
Can't blame the senator. In fact, it just makes him look good and plays into his re-election hands.
This is because the inclination of most folks is to take care of the orphans of our own country first.

Not a Lamar fan, but sorry, problems in Africa ain’t our problem.
I’m still not clear on the story.
Are you saying LAMAR ALEXANDER, who has MILLIONS, wouldn’t donate FIFTY DOLLARS to help you help AFRICAN ORPHANS?
Lamar! hates African orphans.

Maybe so but I’d need more than Ron Hall’s rant over $50 to prove it.
While there are many reasons to oppose Alexander, this has to rate as one of the pettiest, whiniest diatribes I have seen in a while. It is the sort of thing a candidate would surreptitiously sneak out to show how low-rent his opposition supposedly is.
I detest the “gimmee money or you’re a bad person” mentality, be it from a crack smoking welfare mother who demands that the public pay for her eight babies; or a “save the housefly” animal rights group, who demands civil rights for “insect Americans”.
In any event, Alexander’s reply was a typical polite “bedbug letter”, that was not mean spirited in any way, and contributes nothing to any campaign to replace him in office with a more determined conservative.
Phooey.
This has to be sarcasm or humor. It’s so pathetically written, it’s almost unreadable.
I am planning a trip to Hawaii to help young runaway girls and need everybody to send me money. If you don’t send me money you must hate girls and I’ll vote for Ashley Judd.
Maybe he thought he was being tricked into donating to African Rhinos.
