URGENT...........URGENT...............
URGENT
Have you wondered about all of the cash in the Obama Campaign? Sure.......they have raised a ton. Obama first agreed to participate in the US candidate funding program just as every presidential candidate has since the 1970's but he had a better plan--raise the money through illegal means. That is exactly what the Obama Campaign has done ever since opting out of the program.
With HUGE amounts of cash coming from foreigners, largely from Muslim nations ,why would you wonder why they have donated millions to the campaign? They like the candidate and they sure like his chances in 2008. They like their opportunities beginning on 1/21/09 when they can seat "their" first US President.
DON"T LET THIS HAPPEN.
Pass this onto all of your friends whether they are Republicans, Independents or enlightened Democrats. Get the word out so that the American voter can make the right decision in this election. The MSM won't do their job so as citizens it is time we do our civic duty.
Fictitious Donors Found In Obama Finance Records
From The New York Times

Last December, someone using the name "Test Person," from "Some Place, UT," made a series of contributions, the largest being $764, to Senator Barack Obama's presidential campaign totaling $2,410.07.
Someone identifying himself as "Jockim Alberton," from 1581 Leroy Avenue in Wilmington, Del., began giving to Mr. Obama last November, contributing $10 and $25 at a time for a total of $445 through the end of February.
The only problem? There is no Leroy Avenue in Wilmington. And Jockim Alberton, who listed his employer and occupation as "Fdsa Fdsa," does not show up in a search of public records.
An analysis of campaign finance records by The New York Times this
week found nearly 3,000 donations to Mr. Obama, the Democratic nominee, from more than a dozen people with apparently fictitious donor information. The contributions represent a tiny fraction of the record $450 million Mr. Obama has raised. But the questionable donations -- some donors were listed simply with gibberish for their names -- raise concerns about whether the Obama campaign is
adequately vetting its unprecedented flood of donors. ...
But even a contributor who used the name "Jgtj Jfggjjfgj," and listed an address of "thjtrj" in "gjtjtjtjtjtjr, AP," was able to contribute $370 in a series of $10 donations in August.
A pair of donors named "Derty West" and "Derty Poiiuy," who listed "rewq, ME" as their addresses and "Qwertyyy" or "Qwerttyyu" as either their employer or occupation, contributed a combined $1,110 in July. ...
On Monday the Republican National Committee filed a complaint against the Obama campaign with the F.E.C., questioning the legitimacy of the more than $220 million in small donations to Mr. Obama's campaign. ...
Doodad Pro and Good Will, who made more than 1,000 contributions each and whose totals far exceeded the $4,600 that individuals can legally give to the primary and general elections, were flagged by the F.E.C. in standard letters regarding excess contributions sent to the Obama campaign. The commission alerted the campaign about Good Will as early as June, giving it 30 days to respond.
The Obama campaign refunded several thousand dollars in contributions to the two donors, even before receiving the letters from the F.E.C. But its campaign finance filing in September showed it had failed to refund more than $10,000 in donations from each of them, although Obama officials say all of the money has now been returned.
Even though Good Will made more than $7,000 in contributions to the Obama campaign in March, and even more after that, Suzanha Burmeister, marketing director at Goodwill Industries of Central Texas, a nonprofit group whose address matches the one listed by the donor, said the organization was not contacted by the campaign until September. ...
The contributions from Doodad Pro shot up to $11,275 in February alone, of which F.E.C. records show the Obama campaign refunded only $2,550 initially.
The address listed by Doodad Pro leads to Lloyd & Lynn's Liquor & Wine in Nunda, a town of about 3,000 people.
Lynn Kirwan, one of the store's owners, said they used to share an address with a consignment shop called Doodad's. Several months earlier, she said, the local police contacted the store to ask about some athletic equipment that had been ordered by a Doodad Pro, but she said they had heard nothing from the Obama campaign.
Another donor apparently connected to Good Will and Doodad Pro,
"Fornari Usa," listed the same "Loving" and "You" under employer and occupation, and made a series of $25 donations to Mr. Obama in May, totaling $1,050.
The address leads to a women's clothing store, Fornari U.S.A., in Milpitas, Calif. Levi Lazo, a sales associate, said she and her manager were mystified by the donations. ...
