As 11-year-old Dalton Hatfield set about selling his earthly possessions, his parents thought he was doing his part to help pay for a family vacation.
Instead, he was doing his part to help his favored presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton. And on Friday, the young fellow made news when he presented a stunned Bill Clinton with a check for $440.
The former president, according an Associated Press story on the occasion, "seemed to nearly come to tears" as he accepted the donation at a fire station in Williamson, W.Va. (one of the many off-the-beaten-path locales where he has been rallying support for his wife).
The Hillary Clinton campaign, understandably, was so taken with the boy's gesture that today it posted the AP story on its website. Every little bit helps, after all, when it comes to erasing the $20-million debt that the campaign acknowledged on Sunday.
Sorry kid, but you're wasting your money. Hillary is unbelievable in debt with her campaign, and that certainly isn't a quality you want to have in your next President. Your donation, while probably appreciated, will most likely be forgotten in a few weeks, and you will not have any video games to play.
It's a feel good story, but the only one who's needing sympathy is this kid.
