Whatever few dollars I could cough up would be not just a drop in the bucket, more like pissing in the ocean. They already have so much money they wouldn't notice. | |||

"All politics is local." That is where I contribute a little, say, $50. Face to face hand he candidate a check. Mention your 2A proclivity. The local alderman or county commissioner has some influence on local 2A issues that arise. | |||

And still getting near-daily calls from TX which I never answer (sorry if that was you JAllen). And more junk e-mails than regular e-mails. Next time I will set up a new dummy e-mail account for all this crap. And give the VOIP phone number that’s unplugged. _________________________ “ What all the wise men promised has not happened, and what all the damned fools said would happen has come to pass.”— Lord Melbourne | |||

Now in Florida |
I stopped giving political contributions long ago. Got tired of paying for the privilege of having the country run into the ground. Plus, it's never enough. No matter how much they raise, they always need more and aren't shy about asking for it via phone, email, mail, etc. There's always another crisis that they could fix if they just had a few more dollars from me. And another thing that always bothered me was how every donation I make will somehow be triple matched by some generous benefactor. If they've got people willing to triple match all the donations, why don't they just ask those guys to fund everything instead of pretending the $3 they want from me will make a difference? | |||

No longer. Last time I contributed was to Trump, and I gave until it hurt. But he was obviously a special case given the dire circumstances.

I give to the NRA, hoping they spend it to good effect. The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People again must learn to work, instead of living on public assistance. ~ Cicero 55 BC The Dhimocrats love America like ticks love a hound. | |||

I am contributing to Hillary/Warren 2020! /s "Crom is strong! If I die, I have to go before him, and he will ask me, 'What is the riddle of steel?' If I don't know it, he will cast me out of Valhalla and laugh at me." | |||

You don't need to give money to earn the right to complain. Just vote in every election and you're covered. I only give to local candidates and nothing to national parties. Jim ________________________ "If you can't be a good example, then you'll have to be a horrible warning" -Catherine Aird | |||

I did that in 2010. I gave to 7 republicans in tight races. I still get e-mails and phone calls because my contact info was sold/shared. NEVER again. I now give to NRA PVF in election season.
