Obama officials point to the government’s treatment of ACORN, the nationwide association of community organizations, as an example of possible voter suppression. The campaign has never relied on ACORN for its voter registration drives, according to Obama officials, and is viewed as only one of many venders hired by the campaign. Of the $605 million raised by the Obama campaign so far, only $800,000 has gone to ACORN—a number that could be much larger, and would have been had the campaign relied on it more heavily.
I see his story re: ACORN continues to morph slowly towards the truth, never quite reaching it.

No kidding. Just the other day Biden told the anchorette in Florida that they had paid ACORN "not one penny". So much for that I guess.

There is a limit to how much money individuals can give Obama directly, and foreign money is technically prohibited.

There is NO limit to how much money individuals or foreign entities can give ACORN directly -- with the understanding that it is to be used to help Obama.
