Obama campaign accepting illegal campaign donations

    Just looking at the comments on this forum by foreigners who support Obama, it is no wonder the Obama campaign is using a election law loophole to by pass laws prohibiting foreign contributions to American political campaigns.

    In a nutshell, so long as your donation is under 200$, you can throw Obama some money and he won't bother declaring the fact your donation is illegal. I recall in 2008, much adieu was made over the fact Obama's campaign was mostly small donations rather than large contributors. It really makes one wonder where exactly all those small donations came from.

    I for one am shocked. They've been such careful custodians of national integrity up to this point.

    Here... I'll save them the time. The accusations are just politically motivated. [Already put forth by the campaign.]
    Yes, of course... how dare anyone expect them to follow the law, and pointing out when they refuse to do so is just rude.

    I hope that justice is served if that is true.
