thread_title: Should be High Importance

message: I'm changing "Axelrod is credited with engineering Barack Obama's unconventional presidential campaign by drawing on 'Web 2.0' technology and viral media to support a grassroots strategy," because I've found a source that this is not true. While he's involved in implementing this strategy, he certainly did not in anyway engineer this strategy.

message: An interesting story on possible campaign violations and a lack of supervision on where contributions are coming from. 
Excerpts from article cited below (and in other papers today):
Obama senior adviser David Axelrod, speaking to reporters en route to Nashville, Tenn., on Tuesday, noted that anyone can donate to the (Obama) campaign through the Internet. "We monitor these things as best we can," he said.
The Republican National Committee filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission on Monday asking for an investigation of Obama's foreign contributions, among other things.
The FEC on Monday provided The Associated Press with a spread sheet of potential overseas donors that did not include contributors who left their state designation blank. As a result, the list was incomplete.
The $3.3 million total does not include donors who have given less than $200 and whose contributions do not have to be itemized. Some of that money could also have come from overseas. About half of Obama's $455 million in contributions so far are unitemized. The campaign does not identify those donors.
"We monitor these things as best we can," Axelrod said. 
(6th paragraph from the bottom)

"Obviously we've got a huge database of contributors," he said. "It's valuable to our campaign... We're probably more forthcoming about disclosure than anyone."
Independent watchdog groups, however, have asked the campaign to provide more information about its fundraisers and to at least provide information about small donors by zip code or country from where they donate. 
Republican John McCain's campaign lists all his donors, even those who give less than $200, on his Web site.

message: The link to the Japanese article on this page needs to be removed. It is about a seperate Axelrod who is a "far right Israeli lobbyist" arrested in 1990 for killing an Arab person.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by I am 123456 (talk • contribs) 16:45, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Mistaken link to Japanese article

message: The article was recently edited to include a link to a newly created article.  This is questionable in two regards.  First, it seems the phrase here is being used as described in Chicago-style politics not as used in the newly created Chicago-style politics (meme).  Second it's hard to see if this is of note at all. Springee (talk) 12:03, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
