Paid so well they have extra income to donate to Barack Obama. Are they motivated by altruism?

Well Mitt Romney is certainly the darling of banks everywhere! They couldn't have gotten a more allied candidate. I'm not seeing a lot better option with Obama, given his cronyism with the stimulus money. Hundreds of billions directly to government workers, Solyndra, and other companies that financed his campaign. Just goes to prove that money invested in buying Washington politicians is money very well spent. I think the return is around 10:1 !

It all reeks to high heaven. Romney's funds are obviously dirty coming from the banks, but it's not as if Obama's funds are clean either. Either way you vote it's still big business that rules the country. Our colleges needlessly up tuition to laughable levels, our corporations cut jobs and/or lower wages because of outsourcing, and the banks still control everyone by locking them into debt, regardless of how many bad loans they give out.

There needs to be another way. I want someone that represents the people, not the major corporations, banks, and colleges that enslave the people.

From George Carlin's ~ The American Dream:

"Forget the politicians. They are irrelevant. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice! You have OWNERS! They OWN YOU. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. They got you by the balls."

What does it matter, Obama is going to win anyway.
Patnet said so. And CNN and talk enough about it.

Republicans generally oppose science, especially where it disproves the Christian fundamentalists' beliefs (e.g. evolution). When Republicans get in, research gets curtailed. That means fewer jobs in research.

Explain then why so many Silicon Valley tech company founders , many with Scientific background, over the past several decades are Republicans ?

As far as research was concerned much of what High Tech SV industry created over the past several decades were brand new ideas and virgin territories, not taught by academia...but ultimately made its way to academia years later. Much of the multi decade long research was infact made by industry, not academia or government.
