DAMN YOU US LAW!!

I wanted to donate to Elizabeth Warren (Democrat nominee for US Senator of MA), but I can't as i'm not a US citizen or a permanent resident.

Dang, I like her.

I'm sure there's a PAC out there somewhere that would be happy to launder your donation for you.

Is it illegal to send your money to a U.S. citizen so they can donate it? I like Elizabeth Warren, too!

Well, like all laws regarding money in US politics, I'm sure there's a loophole somewhere for it.
I would think a super-pac would be a way to do so since they don't have to disclose their donors to anyone.

I definatively agree with you and aleisloura on Warren though. I've seen her in a bunch of interviews and she knows her shit and definately knows how to cut to the heart of the matter.
She should have been put in charge of her own customer protection agency, but that's neither here nor there.
If today you can take a thing like evolution and make it a crime to teach in the public schools, tomorrow you can make it a crime to teach it in the private schools and next year you can make it a crime to teach it to the hustings or in the church. At the next session you may ban books and the newspapers...
Ignorance and fanaticism are ever busy and need feeding. Always feeding and gloating for more. Today it is the public school teachers; tomorrow the private. The next day the preachers and the lecturers, the magazines, the books, the newspapers. After a while, Your Honor, it is the setting of man against man and creed against creed until with flying banners and beating drums we are marching backward to the glorious ages of the sixteenth centry when bigots lighted fagots to burn the men who dared to bring any intelligence and enlightenment and culture to the human mind. ~Clarence Darrow, at the Scopes Monkey Trial, 1925
Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. ~Ronald Reagan

Exactly the reasons i want to donate to her campaign, what happens in America affects the whole world, and my hood especially with regards to the banking industry.

Send it to me - I'll make sure it gets used appropriately.

Warren is one of the few politicians out there that I actually like.
