For a nation with over a million men and women in uniform, 372 isn't a statisticaly significant number.

You're right. And I do realize this. But it's interesting that 372 members/employees were highly motivated enough to contribute to RuPaul, while dramatically fewer were motivated enough to contribute to any other Republican candidate.

I find that fact interesting and, frankly, surprising (as I stated in the original vanity).

When the folks in the military see their friends being tried for torture, murder and other trumped up charges, sentenced to prison for 10 years for following orders (see my tagline), accused of war crimes, threatened with potential ICC and UN rules, I can see why they begin to want a Commander in Chief who is very clear on how and when and why they can be sent to some hell-hole to face possible death, and who will be extremely careful not to send them there unless we formally declare war and are fighting our OWN (not UN, NATO, EU, etc) war for our own interests or protection.

Is there any chance that people who are in the military contributed to the campaigns of other candidates, but did not identify themselves as being in the Military? Is there any chance that the other campaigns did not go to the same lengths as the R-U-N Paul campaign to identify those members of the military that contributed? If so, then the fact that under 400 members of the military contributing to R-U-N Paul's campaign means exactly nothing.
