For a measly $6 a year from every voting age citizen we could publicly fund every Federal Election. NO corporate donations at all.

Of course we have to hand count every paper ballot (instead of outsourcing our votes to private companies).

But once these two item are in place

(heck throw in instant run off voting - so make it 3, oh yeah and repeal Citizen United - 4 - God these Cons have screwed us but good)

Then

maybe then

We the People will have our country back.

I'd like to see every election in this country, right down to dog catcher, publicly funded. The millions of dollars that Meg Whitman is wasting in CA right now is beyond disgusting.

Absolutely! Every US election! And I'd like to see the US do what other contries do... LIMIT campaigning time! One month, period! We live in a constant state of campaigning in the US and this is one of the top reasons nothing gets done! It is what so much of the deadlock in Congress is about..... and I thik this goes on with both major parties.

Yes, Whitman appears to buying her way right into office!

Actually, I am always discusted about the sums of money spent on political campains. To say it lights, it is a pet peeve of mine!

I don't even like Steve Poizner and Meg Whitman's ad was so offensive to me that I would never cast a vote for her. Even for dog catcher. Especially for dog catcher.
