Maybe the people can buy their candidate into the White House and then MAYBE this country wouldn't be a whore to corporations anymore.
Maybe this country could be FOR the people.....
Just a thought.

There are a number of candidates that do not accept corporate money. If you want to, you & your friends can send money to the candidate of your choice that does not take money except by individual donation. Have a fund raiser for your candidate, lots of ways to help those who are not in the corporate pocket obtain funds for running a campaign. Think about it, we too can buy our own candidate!

So if you were given the choice of spending $500 on your candidate who might not get in, or the choice of DEFINATELY having $100 in your pocket right now to support/not oppose the corporate weasel, which would you choose?
Besides if it's down to spending power then the rich win even MORE - the top 10% hold STUPID amounts more money than the rest of the US.

Yes it is about time. Vote for the candidate who doesn't accept money from lobbyists.
John Edwards

Interesting question, but I don't think Ron Paul can be bought.

We can't get organized enough to do it - to much apathy! But you're right, we need to and ASAP!
