Ron Paul leaves other GOP contenders in the dust when it comes to donations from members of the military - HUMAN EVENTS - Hope Hodge:
April 6, 2012 - "As of Sept. 30, 2011, Paul had received $95,567 from members of the military, edging out President Barack Obama’s $72,616, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. By Feb. 29, that lead had more than doubled to $315,109 compared to Obama’s $148,308.
"The closest runner-up to Paul in the Republican race is Romney, who reported $13,300 in military-related donations as of Sept. 30, and $36,108 from those employed by the military as of Feb. 29.
"In contrast, Paul received more than $220,000 from military donors from October to February even as he trailed three other GOP contenders in the nomination race.
"To date, military donations to the top three Republican frontrunners total barely one-third of what Paul has raised from the same demographic."
