I'm not sure if he "got lucky" so much as laid out his plan for taking over the world right there at the start.
Remember, thefacebook was in deep shit at Harvard when the Winklevoss twins sued him for stealing the idea to the project Zuck was supposedly working on for them.
He got called into the office of the president of Harvard. He walked in a boy about to get railroaded and walked out a newly christened king.
The name of the president at the time? Larry Summers, formerly chief economist of the World Bank and Secretary of the Treasury under Bill Clinton.
In certain states where he did this, it was illegal. There was no way that local officials, always salivating for cash gave, were going to say anything other than "Right, boss. It's all good."
That’s something that I will always be in favor of. I’m a big fan of the tax refund vote voucher system as well where we don’t necessarily require candidates to avoid private money, but we give every eligible voter a couple hundred dollars back on their tax refund as vouchers to hand to candidates. Of course, just handing people cash is something there’s always a strong argument for, but I really do think that most people would not put it towards politics and so it wouldn’t be as effective. Would mean that people can prioritize donations to federal or state or municipal based on their convictions.
He's right up there with Brennan as the most punchable face in existence.

Imagine the amount of coke and hookers you could buy with that money. Damn it, I am getting sidetracked here.

This guy glows.
We’ve needed publicly funded elections for quite awhile now.
To be honest, the donations I was able to make, I did so in hopes of actually resulting in publicly funded executions!
