Michelle Obama sells personal meeting with President for campaign donation

In today's email blast from the Obama campaign Michelle is once again selling a personal encounter with the President for campaign donations; the legality of which should be given more attention than it's been given.

Here's the email...



Friend --


For the first 10 years of our marriage, Barack and I lived in an apartment in my hometown of Chicago.


The winters there can be pretty harsh, but no matter how snowy or icy it got, Barack would head out into the cold -- shovel in hand -- to dig my car out before I went to work.


In all our years of marriage, he's always looked out for me. Now, I see that same commitment every day to you and to this country.


The only way we'll win this election is if we can rely on one another like that, all the way to November 6th. Barack is working hard, but he can't do this alone -- he needs your help.


Make a donation today to build this campaign -- when you do, you'll be automatically entered to join Barack and me for a casual dinner:

Your flight, your meal, your accommodations -- that's all taken care of. Just bring yourself and a guest, and get ready to enjoy a good meal together.


Thanks,


Michelle

Well, there's no doubt in our minds Obama's been shoveling something, the color of which is not white.

BREAKING - Obama Sponsors a LOTTERY - Sells meeting with him for $3

As an insider member of the Obama Campaign we are the recipients of the official Obama For President emails. The most recent email sent out today details a lottery sponsored by Obama for a chance to win a dinner and meeting with "The One" and his wife Michelle.

The body text of the email (implied to be personally written by Barack - I call him Barack now that I'm on the inside) reads "Donate $3 or whatever you can to be automatically entered to sit down for a meal with Michelle and me." A link is embedded in that text which takes the reader to a donate page where you must donate in order to be entered into the drawing to meet the POTUS and his woman.

HOWEVER - the fine print at the bottom of the page says the following - "No purchase, payment, or contribution necessary to enter or win. Contributing will not improve chances of winning. Void where prohibited". Wait just a minute! Barack himself said you had to donate. The donate page ALSO says the same thing - "Make a donation today to be automatically entered for a chance to have dinner with President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama". Can we get some clarification on this?

Wait - no need. There seems to be a political paradox at play here. The implication here made by Barack is that a donation is required. This is the goal here. HOWEVER the legal team added the tiny text at the bottom of the page for a little CYA. We understand now. The lottery will net a large amount of money because most people (especially the liberals who will actually do this) will not bother reading the fine print. Obama gets a fine photo op and, well, you get the picture... politics as usual.
