You mean like Vice President Cheney holding a lot of Halliburton?

lol, yes, they have to disclose their holdings. But, unfortunately Politicians can still do about anything!

yes. They certainly can. They should once they are elected to office place their holdings into a blind trust. Which is sort of a joke because they know what their holdings are, unless of course they are senile, which of course many are.
