I heard this report this morning on a local news channel in Dallas, couldn't believe it when I heard it but was able to find that it is true. An article in the Dallas Morning News from 16 July 2012 by Wayne Slater regarding Mitt's fundraising in Texas. In the last quarter the Rmoney campaign reports raising more than $13 million. The Usual Suspects are named in the article but.....
An interesting paragraph notes that:
Preston Troutt, a high school junior and son of Excel Communications billionaire Kenny Troutt, gave the maximum-allowed $75,800, according to the new filing Monday. Preston Troutt, a basketball star at Trinity Christian Academy, appears to be making his first foray into politics as a financial benefactor.
I guess my memory must be going as I get older but I thought one had to be 18 years old to cast a vote in elections.
WTF is a HS Junior doing donating >$75K to a candidate?
