(19,567 posts)I'm trying to do it in ways which help give him the most press. When I know it matters most I blow my donation budget on him for that month.
Biden is using Obama's online strategy via donations this round. I admit I love seeing him implement that, it's a pretty piece of nostalgia for me. Text me, engage me with your message and make me feel necessary. Then, nudge me to signup to volunteer! I'm a sucker for volunteering for a campaign I believe in when pressed to stand up and do so.

(53,410 posts)regarding money. Because our small donations are beating their corporate big donor ones. They like to think that money talks and therefore it will beat us every time, but weve proved that when were united behind a candidate and especially when were united against one of theirs our individual small donations turn into that blue wave.
I was cheering for our side because they cant hobble us when we become united. We give Citizens United a whole new meaning.
