    Technically he did no longer take money from huge oil, yet he used the comparable artwork-around the Republicans use. they supply to the party, the party spends the money helping the candidate. It grew to become into deceptive, yet no longer fake. Being intentionally deceptive is as undesirable as mendacity, if no longer worse.

    Well no candiate is allowed to accept direct donations from any Corporation.

    Obama was just twisting his words, to make it look like he wasn't doing something and the other candiates were,

    That no candiate is allowed to do.

    But Obama has accepted several hundred thousand dollars in campaign donations from Oil company executives.

    Just like the other candiates have.

    I could care less if he does or does not. Obama did not support the GOP/Bush war in Iraq. Hillary did. That is why I am voting for him again in the national election as I did in the primary.

  • you do know that Hillary's top 5 contributors are Lobbyists too

    FACT: He doesn't take money from lobbyists or oil company PACS (or any other PACS).

    Prove he does.

    He has to say that to become president. Don't worry it's not personal. You will indiscriminately get lied to and screwed by any of them.
