Is Obama now engaged in illegal gambling?
Minnesota is investigating Obama for running an illegal raffle/lottery with his donation scam to receive tickets to the convention. You would have thought he would learn after his real estate scams with Rezko, and his hospital scam with his wife and her hospital all ripping off the poor and uninsured. I guess he’ll have to join his good buddy Rezko in jail before this power/monry hungry madman stops!

It’s a $5 donation to be entered for a chance for backstage tickets to his free convention.
And why does Minnesota care?

Right up to the top of his big ears. The phony lottery ticket
fund raising scam is good. Against the law but good. Maybe
the Boy should have spent more time dealing in contemporary
law as opposed to constitutional. He would then know if
was breaking a law or not.

Hey big "O" here. It is only illegal if caught, well I might be caught now that it is all over yahoo.
But that is not the point, for only $5.00 you can have a chance to meet me back stage (without my amazonian wife) for a few beers and a chat. Maybe more if your cute, (got that one from bill c)
I am obama and I approved this message.

Interesting how the McCain handlers are starting to spread this story now that the truth about McCain’s own gambling (and failure to file the relevant tax forms for gambling winnings/losses) is about to come out: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/7/6/11218/73471/852/547313

the word "raffle" was missing but how can you select the winners if not through raffle otherwise is will be injustice to others who shelled their precious money for a rock concert. hence, it is implied thus it could be illegal.
he is said to do gambling with bigtime pols and campaign funders.

Another Republican witch hunt looking for wrongdoing when all the Obama campaign is trying to do is put the fun in fund raising.
When McCain tried to cover up Cindy’s drug abuse and stealing drugs from her charity, that was illegal too, and more heinous than a little raffle. In fact, John and Cindy are both guilty of felonies.
Obama is a corrupt Cook County politician. The rubes who believe his inane rhetoric about HOPE and CHANGE are naive in the extreme.
