This money is very difficult to raise by appeals to a mass base, although in the 2008 election, candidates from both parties had success with raising money from citizens over the Internet, as had Howard Dean with his Internet appeals.
Dana ini sangat sulit diperoleh hanya melalui basis massa secara langsung, meskipun pada pemilihan umum 2008, para calon dari Demokrat maupun Republik berhasil bagus dengan perolehan dana dari warga negara melalui Internet., seperti yang dilakukan Howard Dean dengan daya tariknya yang besar melalui Internet.
