Al...
None of MY donated dollars go to ADA.My donated dollars for diabetes go to the JDF. (I refuse to participate in fundraising activities for the ADA because of their very poor return into research)
My point was that Mr.Davidson is complaining in one breath that the NIH only gives 35% of its funds to diabetes research, and then he says that the ADA will TRY to raise THEIR research funds to 33%. With that kind of track record, there's no way the NIH will take the ADA seriously, IMHO.
