THIS is why I'm supporting Bernie Sanders.
It is an age old rule that you get what you pay for, you know. And with Bernie we know what we'll be getting because we're the ones who have paid. With Clinton, not so much.

(9,126 posts)6. Can you give a link where this info and graphic is from?
I want to check it to make sure if it's legit. If it is, it is DEVASTATING. And should be posted everywhere.

We need to be careful with the information that we use.
On Open Secrets, no numbers have been posted yet for the 2016 presidential campaign.

Open Secrets hasn't published any donation numbers from 2016 yet and the FEC only show Cruz reporting to date.
