Military contributions favor Obama over Romney 2 to 1

Based on reporting from the Center for Responsive Politics, including September fundraising, Obama has received $678,611 from military donors, far more than Romney's total of $398,450. As it turns out, Romney figure also narrowly trails Ron Paul's $399,274 in contributions from the military.

It's worth clarifying that "military donors" include contributions from members of the Navy, Marines, Army, Air Force, National Guard, Coast Guard, Department of Defense, National Defense University, Defense Acquisition University, and Americans in NATO. The most campaign donations have come from the Department of Defense itself, which heavily favors Obama over Romney.

McCarter added, "Military personnel overwhelmingly support Obama over Romney despite the pending cuts to defense. That could be because Obama has kept his promise to bring the wars to an end and because to Mitt Romney, the troops aren't anything more than an item on a laundry list."

Ron Paul received more military donations than Romney, but even that's irrelevant because Paul is also clearly a puppet as well.

The military does notice when Romney is entitled enough to avoid having to go to Vietnam...

... and CHOOSES to avoid Vietnam like a coward.

Romney, inauthenticity is your name.
