Recently, I read a news report about a supporter of Rudy Giuliani throwing a party that aims to raise $9.11 per person for the Republican presidential candidate’s campaign. In response, I’m asking supporters of Mike Huckabee (a.k.a., HUCKABEELIEVERS) to contribute to his campaign $4.15 for each year they’ve filed a federal tax return. Why $4.15? [...]
