Group: Money is everything

Money really is everything when it comes to winning an election, unless you are Mitt Romney. This is really simple, when it comes to a tight race, every dollar counts. One more attack ad or one more minute of air time might influence the average voter rght before they cast their ballots. This upcoming general election will exemplify that as well. Despite GOP low-ratings, the race still seems tight. Many people will contribute to their favorite candidates so that they could win. They know that money is HUGE, and judging by recent trends which point to more and more expensive campaigns, that will not change any time soon.

Group: How money influence politics

Money is just one of the ways to influence a way candidates campaign. Money can be a important factor for even a outcome of a party or presidential nomination. What important about money is the amount of money and the person that donate to a candidate influence heavily on the campaign. For example in Barack Obama campaign, Oprah endorse Barack Obama in presidential election and gave him amount of money. The fame of Oprah easily gave voters to Obama, along with the sum of money that greatly help Obama to spread his support through the country. In democratic election, since election for a democratic candidate still going, both candidate have spent all their money in the election the only way to keep campaigning is more money.

Group: The Influence of Money

Money influences politics in a lot of ways. The Illinois primary may be over, but Obama and Clinton still have a lot of delegates to win over before one can be chosen for the final election. However though, Money doesnt influence so much here as it does build up for later. Delegates are flesh and blood people so once theyve made up their mind, they probably wont change it. The money to organizations will donate your money to candidates who front their view, which is, in my opinion, a better option. Why donate to one candidate who might not win just to support your view? support all of them who do and maybe one of them will win. As far as delegates go however, not much money will make a difference one way or the other.
