Need some help with this re Jared Loughner
I'm trying to find out if he's made any political contributions, to candidates or any movement organizations.

Not looking for "suggested" sites like (FEC, OpenSecrets, etc).

I'm looking to see if anyone can find that info if it exists. My name doesn't even come up in some of the searches on those "official" sites, and I know how much I've given.

2. I think it unlikely that a 22 year old
made any contributions. I could be wrong.

3. Any 22 year olds here disagree?

For example, pretty sure many college students gave $20 at a time to "Obama" in 2008.

11. That would not put you on any database - I think they report over $250

The NYT has an article and it is clear that he is mentally ill. That - more than any political believes is what is behind this. There is a woman who claimed he was left, liberal and radical, but among his favorite books was one by that well known leftie, Ayn Rand. Just from that, you would more likely put him as a Ron Paul libertarian.

7. I first donated to a campaign when I was 19. It was only 20$ but still

I'm 22 now and don't have as much disposable income as I did, but I try and donate when I can. I have many friends who are the same age as me who donate aswell.

4. Does not look like he was a teabagger
from what is being said about him on various news channels.

Actually I did once walk into a meeting at Waldorf Astoria in NYC
where the media was conspiring in favor of RWingers.

But wait, then I was rudely awaken by the freaking alarm clock.
