10. Not bad...

300 people, each donating the maximum $2800 personal donation would have generated $840,000. That's why candidates go to these fundraisers that attract people who can donate that much. For the donors, it's not a big deal to write a check that size, so it's not all that remarkable, but it's a great source of campaign funding.

I never criticize this kind of fundraising, but not all candidates can generate that kind of sum at one event.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
