Best way to do it, provided every candidate gets an equal take of the campaign funds, not just, the so-called front runners, and to get those funds for the primary and the general election.

free speech with full disclosure
no gov't funding at all with no limits on campaign spending.
however, campaigns may only accept funds from known real voters and must report the amounts on the Internet within 24 hours. no other funds may be used at all.
anyone else may advertise or otherwise promote any candidate they wish, BUT the source of the funds must be traced to real people before the ad is published and must be included in the ad. Fines for evading disclosure equal to the amounts spent.

how can we be free if we can't spend our money to express our political convictions?

Money = Speech
No thanks to more limits on speech, especially government-enforced limits.
