Is it your position that the Ron Paul campaign should research all the extremely diverse and nuanced views of its (almost exclusively individual) donors and then return the donations of people with views that don't meet some arbitrarily determined similarity threshold?

No, that is not my position.

Really?

Really.

Is this a reasonable demand in any sense?

[/ QUOTE ]
Of course not. No one demanded it.



My position is quite clear: If a donation is brought to a candidate's attention, and they fundamentally disagree with the well-known views of that donor, they should return it.

That, incidentally, I assume, is the position of almost every political candidate in the Western world. It is certainly very standard in Australia, where I work in the political system.
