Ashbrook Campaign Draws Wealthy and Garden Variety Donors
Wealthy contributors writing large checks and ordinary donors giving small sums back John M. Ashbrook's month old presidential bid. While some question if funding will endure until New Hampshire on March 7 and Florida on March 14, the Institute for American Democracy says he faces no major financial worry, noting the right wing network could raise hundreds of thousands. Baker compares Ashbrook’s strategy to Goldwater’s, stressing tactical aims to push Nixon right and attract donors backing high military spending.
