Giuliani Names Trump Jr. to Fundraising Team
When it comes to fundraising, Rudy Giuliani wants to hit it out of the park. The former New York mayor's presidential campaign on Thursday named 20 men and women under the age of 45 to be among his lead fundraisers, giving them goals of raising between $25,000 and $1 million. Pikers who raise the lowest amount will get the title of All-American Pitcher. Those who bundle $50,000 in contributions will be All-American Sluggers; $100,000 will be All-American All Stars; and $200,000 will be All-American MVPs. A fundraiser who amasses $1 million for Giuliani gets to be All-American Team Captain. The team's national chairman will be Bryan Pickens, owner of a Dallas investment firm and a former fundraiser for President Bush. He is not related to billionaire T. Boone Pickens.
Story Continues Below Other team leaders include Donald Trump Jr., the son of the New York real estate magnate; Scott Bungaard, a former Arizona state senator; John Mascialino, a former deputy mayor under Giuliani; and Milam Mabry, a Washington lobbyist in the law firm of Bracewell & Giuliani. Others are newer to politics but presumably have an extensive list of personal and business contacts they can tap to help Giuliani build his campaign treasury.
