I made the serious mistake of donating to an organization connected with Alan Keyes. It was his Declaration Foundation, which I understand from Free Republic threads is associated with Simcox. From that single donation, I have received over 20 requests for additional donations from organizations I have never heard of before. Apparently, the Declaration Foundation has as its principal goal selling my name and address to as many other organizations as possible.

Have you ever donated to a Republican candidate for office? The exact same thing happens.

"Have you ever donated to a Republican candidate for office? The exact same thing happens."

Yes, it does, but that is a candidate, not a PAC or PAC-like organization.

You try it. Donate to the Declaration Association or the Declaration Foundation. Use a unique way of writing your address. You won't believe who sends you requests for donations. I know I didn't.

Donations to candidates or to political parties go to a specific purpose, that of getting a candidate elected. Where did the money sent to Simcox go? Do you know? I sure can't find that information.
