Is more than 50% on central staff.

Let me observe quoting my book "In early and mid-October 2000 the Browne Campaign received slightly more than $167,000 in donations and spent roughly $163,000".  Of that $31,300 was paid to staffers, and $9,695 was paid to firms of those associates...The regular monthly rent for the headquarters was $1800.

The Barr campaign in September spent well over $15,000 for rent and another $7,000 for office equipment and furniture.

For October 1 to October 15, the Barr 2008 campaign had income of $128,459, and spent almost $79,000 of it, leaving it with $77,022 cash on hand.  Of that, a shade over $40,000 -- that's more than half -- was spent on paying people.  

Almost $20,000 was spent on postage, shipping, and fulfillment.  $7000+ was spent on data handling.

No money was spent on advertising. (8^((

People paid were
    Shane Cory $12,000
    Steve Sinton $4,000
    Robert Stuber $4,000
    Andrew MacPherson $3,000
    Ashley Petty $1,970
    Mike Ferguson $1,250
    Liberty Strategies $13,000 ("Contract Labor")

And they have an office -- total spending $6043
     Office Equipment $3,584
     Office Supplies  $   203
     Rent             $2,255

The candidate did travel; note $1078 to El Monte RV.

Postage, Shipping and Fulfillment ('Packaging and
Shipping):       $19,936

Data handling -- Total $7,038
     Rackspace $2,054
     Software    $3,769
     Telephone $1,039
     Cell Phone $ 175

Transaction Fees, mostly Paypal, came to $2361.

So they should not pay empolees? (none / 0) (#1)

You are an Idiot looking for attention....Stop this Bull shit. Ron Paul gave more money from his campaign to his kids. It would also be nice to note Bob Barr has put a lot of his own money into this. Go examine: Brack Obama and John McCain Millions from special interests and you the tax payer. Or even Ron Paul Should they work out of an alley would you be happy them? You most be really poor...hell the web site speaks to that....
