Geee Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Washington Examiner:Dems: Donate now and win a trip to meet Obama!By: BYRON YORKChief Political Correspondent10/11/10 8:15 PM EDTOrganizing for America, the permanent incarnation of the Obama presidential campaign, has a new offer to its members: send money now and be automatically registered for a chance to win a trip to meet Barack Obama.It will happen October 22, when Obama appears at a rally for faltering Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in Las Vegas. "The president will be kicking off the final push at a grassroots rally," an Organizing for America email says. "We're saving three backstage passes for supporters like you."Obama has been criticized for appearing at high-dollar events like a soiree at the Washington DC home of former network newswoman and White House health care spokeswoman Linda Douglass. That event cost $30,400 to attend. This one will be different. If you send in just $3 between now and 11:59 p.m. Friday, you'll have a chance to win -- air fare, hotel, and "backstage pass" to meet Obama.

clearvision Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Hmmm, I think it is illegal in a lot of states to hold a raffle where you require a person to make a payment. Usually they have to have in small letters, you can enter for free too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clearvision Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Ah, now that I read the article it seems they have two pages. The 2nd is for those who don't want to contribute for the free trip to vegas. Looks like anyone can enter for the trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clearvision Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 One round-trip coach-class airplane ticket from the major airport closest to the winner's address within the continental United States to Las Vegas, NV, including ground transportation to and from the airport in Las Vegas. (approximate retail value $1,100.00 · One night's stay for winner at a hotel in Las Vegas, NV, the night of October 22, 2010 in a single-occupancy room or room of equivalent value (approximate retail value $100.00); · Admission to the Moving America Forward rally in Las Vegas, NV, and a meeting with the President of the United States backstage at the rally on October 22, 2010 (approximate retail value $0.00); OK only 1 night... I think they nailed the price of the meeting with the President correctly.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AceRimmer Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Actually the winner gets to go to a movie. The loser has to meet the 0. I'd enter, but I'm afraid I'd be forced to meet Obambi and Dingy Harry. I'd rather just hit the craps tables in the casino instead... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
