Businesses to Pledge % of Sales to Ron Paul

[katao]

As I've described on other threads, small business owners can be powerful allies in this fight. I can't claim any credit for this one, but here in Salt Lake City, an online retailer is stepping up to the plate.

It would be great for this sort of thing to catch on...

P.S. Buy from these guys if you have need of their product.


For Immediate Release:
Freshwater Organics pledges to donate ½ of all September sales to Ron Paul campaign

"We are hopeful that this fund-raising promotion will help create awareness for Ron Paul -- the Republican Presidential candidate from Texas, and that the fund raising idea will spread to other on line stores".- Fran Tully

seems like this wouldn't be legal.

Wow, ½ is a lot. We should really focus our attention to business owners, they're the most capable of contributing and the most likely to benefit.

I'm not sure of legality - they do have disclaimer on the site that contributions are only up to the maximum allowed by law.

Nayjevin, perhaps you can have a section on the Portal for businesses supporting Ron Paul.
