Yes, I believe that the politicians of America should disclose the names of all people who donated money to be used in campaigns. By not saying the names of all contributors who contributed fewer than two-hundred dollars, the politicians are getting money to campaign on, and the people that donated it aren't receiving any thanks (if that was me I don't think I would be donating again).

Some Americans that are into politics are not financially stable enough to donate over two-hundred dollars to a political campaign that won't even thank them. It is my belief that the politicians should have to thank all contributors, no matter what the donation is. It is morally wrong to take the peoples money without giving any thanks at all and spend it on: a $400 haircut, $500 bottle of wine, or a costly room service bill.

Some of the people who donate under $200 are truly giving from the bottom of their hearts, (unlike some millionaires that can afford to give two-hundred thousand dollars) and I believe that they should be thanked for what they have given, no matter the amount.
