Raising funds is respectable, traditional and integral part of election process.  

Having said that, there is very precious little I can learn about Darshan Rauniyar from his website.  The platform he promotes are far too generic and full of platitude.  Perhaps he should learn from the campaign being run by Elizabeth Warren in MA.  She sounds much articulate and effective.

One question that keeps popping up is, "Why is Rauniyar running for the US Congress without gathering any experience on local politics?"  Sure, latter is not essential for the former, but it would behoove any politician to gather some experience and momentum locally before jumping into the deep waters of national politics.  Could he just be a set up by fellow Democrats?  I hope not.  But politics is a dirty game.

So far, I have found no factor that motivates me donate to Darshan Rauniyar other than the fact that he is a Nepali American.  But he said he will lay out his plans on Q4.  So I will hold on to my wallet until then.
