The use of the CVV number for donation transactions is non-existent by the Obama campaign among other suspicious activity.

I never heard of Government Accountability Institute but a simple search for the group yields the fact that they are NOT a non-partisan group.

If there is in fact a problem with team Obama not collecting CVV then the question is it illegal and whether this practice is prevalent in our political system.
