Hillary Clinton's donor list

I found this one rather interesting. Hillary seems to have a rather large and generous following in China Town in New York. The funny thing is, she's getting a lot of money from people who don't make a lot of money. Seems a bit fishy to me. A couple key quotes in the linked story below;

"The Times examined the cases of more than 150 donors who provided checks to Clinton after fundraising events geared to the Chinese community. One-third of those donors could not be found using property, telephone or business records. Most have not registered to vote, according to public records."

and

"Like many who traveled this path, most of the Chinese reported as contributing to Clinton's campaign have never voted. Many speak little or no English. Some seem to lead such ephemeral lives that neighbors say they've never heard of them."

Find the story here.

That is all.
