Getting Stacks from Daddy Bush

The thing I like and respect about Obama is that all his campaign money is from grassroots organizations and citizens like ourselves. He prides himself on working for the people and the issues they find most important. It is known that many Presidential candidates in the past and presently receive campaign money from organizations that want something from the candidate. Their money is a bribe or debt from/to those that loaned it. McCain has received money from Bush recently because of his lack of stacks he's been accumulating through out his campaign. More below:

CNN) -- President Bush traveled to Arizona on Tuesday for a fundraiser for Sen. John McCain, the first time in more than two months the unpopular president appeared with the man he hopes will succeed him.

The fundraiser in chief raised an estimated $3 million for the Republican National Committee during his stop in Phoenix, The Associated Press reported.

McCain consistently has trailed the two remaining Democratic presidential candidates in fundraising. The $17 million he raised in April was dwarfed by the nearly $31 million raised by Obama and the $21 million raised by Sen.Clinton.

McCain also trails both Democrats in the amount of cash on hand. He had nearly $22 million in the bank at the end of April, while Obama had more than double that amount -- nearly $47 million -- and Clinton had nearly $30 million

McCain is going to have the same agenda as Bush if elected. Hopefully Americans are smart enough to realize that and continue saying YES WE CAN!
