Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson's presidential campaign brought in $23 million in the fourth quarter of 2015, Politico reported late Wednesday.
Carson's total puts him ahead of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), who reportedly raised about $20 million in the quarter.

Just divert the emails to your trash box or call them SPAM....I get a lot...and don’t even read them...and I’ve not sent money yet to ANYONE.
They all do it...I even get requests from Juan McCain! Ha!
Cruz was somewhat ahead of Carson in cash on hand going into the quarter, though. Besides, Cruz-supporting groups seem to have more money than Carson-affiliated groups.
Go Trump/Cruz!
LOL fortunately I haven’t heard from him.
At this stage donating to Carson makes about as much sense to me as donating to Bush. Neither has a ghost of a chance to be president and donating now is throwing good money after bad.
Hit the Spam button. For paper requests, write on form “leave me alone” and send back postage due. Telephone requests can be addressedd by threatening to put them on the federal Do Not Call List and advising you will write in Obama for Prez.
It’s impossible to Unsubscribe from Cruz, I’ve tried a dozen times. A while ago I hit the Spam button and now that crap goes to the Spam Folder.
Who is still contributing to Carson, and why?
I signed up for info on the Trump website, and all I get is a once a week update on the status of the campaign, poll numbers, rallies held, interviews given, etc., but no requests for money. That’s really refreshing.
In 2008 I donated to the McCain campaign, and have been bombarded with fundraising emails from hundreds of republican candidates over the years since.
Nothing works . I have even told them “Go to Hell”, “I hope he lose” etc. Damn they still call.
I really want him to lose now. They will call at dinner time or 5.30 pm.
LOL, I guess 20 million isn’t enough if you want to buy the presidency. What about the 38+ million in his PACs? Well, they did give 1/2 million to Carly.
Ditto!!
Love Trump’s weekly updates.....that have NO donation requests!

When Cruz sent me a dollar in a fundraising letter that did it for me. He has gone full establishment. Eight years as Donald Trump’s VP should fix that.
I suppose you think he’ll get support from the RNC - just like virtually every conservative in the past four to six years? Not likely!
It will be interesting to see the average of campaign donations for each candidate when the FEC results are published in a month or two...
When Ron Paul was my congressman I could donate safely to his campaign for reelection. Donating to Steve Forbes never got me on a list. I can also donate safely to Trumps (I buy his hats). It's just the sleaze bags politicians that sell your info to other sleaze bag politicians.
Mark them as spam...
If you “participate” in one line polls run by sleaze bag ad agencies. You get put on a list. Never click on a “Who are you voting for Trump[] Cruz[] Carson[] Rubio[]” It’s a trap! they already know who you are and they will sell your info to some sleaze bag professional politician.
It’s funny, the only person I have ever donated to is Trump and I never get anything from him except updates as to where he will be and a Christmas card. I’m guessing all these other guys got my name from a voter list or from my Senator (who backs Bush, by the way.)
