OBAMA ACCEPTS 'OSAMA BIN LADEN' DONATIONS
No block to foreign money – not even from dead terrorists
by AARON KLEIN Oct. 29, 2012
WASHINGTON – Using a Pakistani Internet Protocol, or IP address, a disposable credit card and a fake address, “Osama bin Laden” has successfully donated twice to Barack Obama’s presidential re-election campaign.
The “Bin Laden” donations, actually made by WND staff, included a listed occupation of “deceased terror chief” and a stated employer of “al-Qaida.”
“Bin Laden” is currently set up on the official campaign website to contribute more to Obama’s campaign. The name is also registered as a volunteer.

Michael Czin, an Obama campaign spokesman, told the Post that FEC data was the result of “a minor technical error.” [The Obama campaign refuses to release the identification of donors who give less than $200.]
... The non-profit Government Accountability Institute recently released a report alleging Obama’s campaign had solicited foreigners for political donations through its social media websites.
As the Daily Caller reported, a statement accompanied the GAI’s report from former U.S. Attorney Ken Sukhia noting that 68 percent of traffic to Obama.com comes from foreign users, all of whom were redirected to a fundraising page operated by the president’s re-election campaign.
The GAI report further documented how Obama.com was registered in September 2008 to Robert Roche, an Obama campaign bundler living in Shanghai, China...
