De Amerikaans wet verbiedt buitenlandse bijdragen aan de campagne. Ik was nieuwsgierig en vroeg waarom ik niet mocht doneren. Onderstaand geautomatiseerd bericht ontving ik als reactie. Ik heb uiteindelijk geen geld overgemaakt maar ik mij voorstellen dat er niet-Amerikanen geld hebben overgemaakt naar de campagne van Obama. Het is gewoon te makkelijk.
