You realize, of course, from first-hand observation that most service members are non-political. Eisenhower never voted until he became a candidate for President in 1952.

The fact that more military donations went to Ron Paul than any other candidate in Q3 does not say much about "the military" supporting him, nor does it say they oppose him. Most have never heard of him, as you say.

Your supposition that it's "mostly dems" supporting Paul cannot be proven, unless you want to take the time to check voter registration for over 100,000 individual donors.

But go ahead and believe that, or that George Soros is sending money to phantom contributors, if it makes you feel better.

Again, it’s just first-hand observation, concerning my perception that Mr. Paul’s supporters are mostly dems. I took leave a few months ago to my home town in NY, most of my dem friends had Ron Paul and barack obama signs up in their front yard. They all supported him because of his foreign policy views, which happen to be the opposite of mine. That is my only problem with the guy, I’m not accusing him of being a neo-nazi or quasi-dem.
