Is anyone here planning on contributing anything this year? I'm considering donating to Romney myself.

$25 a month to Obama since last June. Also given small donations to Elizabeth Warren, Christie Vilsack, Tim Walz and the Wisconsin Democratic party.

I have sent in two $20.00 bills to the Ron Paul campaign. Each time they sent me free bumper stickers.

$100 to Romney.
$50 to Mia Love
$25/month to the NRSC

I plan to give to additional Senate and House campaigns in the fall when I have an idea of close races where it might make a difference.

Is it legal for teenagers to contribute to political campaigns?

It is.  I donated $20 to Bob Casey when I was 16 to irritate Keystone Phil.

I've seen fairly young kids (5-10) give a dollar or two to political campaigns at events, and fill out the disclosure paperwork.  As long as the kid wants to, it's legal.

You were willing to spend money just to irritate some random person on the internet? That's dedication right there.

Haha, no. Tongue I also had a strong dislike for Santorum at the time, and thought it was cool I could participate in the political process before I was able to vote.  And Phil isn't just any random guy on the Internet!

I would not be surprised if the guy in the mail room just pocketed the cash Tongue I did not file any paperwork either....

Not sure who. But I will. I probably should throw some money to Mittens, just because.
