∙ 11y agoIt is difficult to say, since under current campaign laws, independent groups can donate large sums anonymously. President Obama has probably kept pace with his Republican challenger Mitt Romney, but some sources say Romney has raised more money than the president at this point (May 2012). In either case, campaign donations (many of which come from partisan advocacy groups and large corporations) are currently in the multi-millions of dollars on both sides.

How much money did obama spend campaigning?
Enough.
Is Obama using the presidency for campaigning purposes?
No, not exclusively. But campaigning is a part of what politicians do: like all other presidents, Obama has to campaign if he wants to be re-elected. The majority of a president's duties involves leading the country, making important strategic decisions about issues like the economy and foreign policy. But the rest of being president is about persuading people (voters) to keep you in office. So, while Obama does not spend all of his time campaigning, he does spend some of it visiting various cities, giving speeches and trying to gather votes-- which is exactly what Bush, Clinton, and Reagan also had to do.
