(Tim) President Obama's charitable contributions prior to being elected to public office a couple years ago were less than one percent. Less than one percent, folks!
And now, occupying the White House with a recent household income in the millions, his giving is lower than other presidents who have preceded him. (Probably with this public embarrassment, his giving will go up in future years.)
Turning to Vice President and Mrs. Joseph Biden...
last year the Bidens gave less than seven-tenths of one percent. Think that's bad?
In past years, the Bidens gave less than one-eighth of one percent.
The average American gives two and a half percent.
