The "We may be happy to buy you a seat in congress" meme.

Next congressional election: If someone running for the US house was an outed atheist/agnostic, and every atheist/agnostic donated one dollar to that campaign, or if ten percent of the atheists/agnostics gave ten dollars to that campaign, it would be the best funded congressional campaign ever.

Of course, you'd have to be an otherwise competent candidate, probably with a liberal stand on most issues, pro-science, pro-education, pro-rational, etc. etc. But mainly we need you to be an Establishment Clause nut.

Pass it on.

What kind of numbers are you talking about as far as current number of atheist/amount of money raised?

There are about fifteen million atheo-agnos in the us. I don't know if that counts babies and children or not, thus only one dollar per person. Even babies have one dollar.
