Hi.

Very interesting tag line.

Would you by any cnance consider starting a vanity to explain to the rest of us how a "commoner" might be able to suddenly effectively raise money for a conservative candidate -- "commoner" meaning not a millionaire or a billionaire or a celebrity or any type of "elite."

Thanks.
HP

I raised just over $40,000 for Fred Thompson in the short time he was in the running. You do what most people would never dream of doing: You ask for the money. In the old days (1980s) I would use the book Who’s Who in _____ (fill in the blank) calling everyone identified as a Republican or Independent. Today, most campaigns have a fundraising gizmo that you can put on you website(s), blog(s) and use on social networking sites, comments on news articles, etc. That’s mostly how I was able to bundle so much for Fred. The gizmo was personalized to my account at Fred’s site, so it knew that I was the one that raised that $$ for the candidate... Another thing to do is have a fundraiser at your home, at tea parties, events, etc... if allowed. I would also contact veterans, conservative organizations, women’s groups, etc...
