The Texas candidate for the Republican Presidential nomination has amassed plenty of donations for his campaign, with Google topping the list.
Though $22,250 may not sound like a lot of money, among Ron Paul donors it's the top amount the candidate has received from one source.
However, Google's place at the top of the OpenSecrets.org list of campaign donors requires a caveat, one that the site lists next to the table of donors:
The organizations themselves did not donate, rather the money came from the organization's PAC, its individual members or employees or owners, and those individuals' immediate families.
Another technology company rated in the top five of Paul donors. After the US Army and the US Navy, Microsoft contributions added up to $12,863. Networking company Cisco had $8,900 listed too.
Though the technology community, dominated by California's Silicon Valley, resides in a hotbed of Democratic voters and supporters, Paul's message has resonated with a few people. A site called the PaulCash Tracker shows his ongoing donations, excerpted from the official candidate site, totaling over $18 million since October 1st.

Ron Paul is alright
Anyone who want's to eliminate the Federal Reserve is alright in my book. That alone would save America.
Ron Paul For All !!!
Ron Paul is the only candidate running for president that has the vision of the founding fathers of this country ingrained in his heart. Core Character Counts. He is the only one in the field that I would trust my money and my family's safety with.
The honesty and integrity displayed by Ron Paul coupled with the message he espouses is the glue that binds the support together. The word could not do it alone and this is precisely why the media and the others are baffled. The Ron Paul Supporters Value Substance Over Symbolism. We fully believe that Ron Paul will follow his words as his record shows. He is not as the others with Pandering Platitudes.
The commonality with all Americans is the Constitution. This is why his support group can not be pigeon holed in to a specific category. We Are Diverse And Many. There is no singular stereotype that even comes close to the specification of the group.
