Clinton’s money isn't from "small" donors

Defending herself from claims that she’s too cozy with Wall Street, Clinton responded, “Not only do I have hundreds of thousands of donors, most of them small....”

The Federal Election Commission defines a small donation as less than $200. Her campaign has received $13.3 million in small donations, just a fraction of her total haul of $76.1 million this cycle. There’s no way to know how many individual donors made up that group, percent, because they don’t have to be disclosed. But her statement is certainly misleading. Her money comes from chiefly big donors.

[Nor does she know that most came from women as claimed.]

It costs a billion dollars to run for president.

That would mean that at $200 a throw, Hillary would need five million donors. With a more typical contribution of $25, she'd need 40 million, or about 1/6 of the adult population of the United States.
