Wolf -- don't get me started.
I'm my opinion nothing will change until all political elections are publicly funded PERIOD. Depending on whether the election is local, state or national, all candidates receive the exact same amount of $$, radio air time and TV air time -- and the campaigning is limited to a reasonable amount of time.
That way no drug companies, oil companies, insurance companies, etc., etc. could buy the politicians. The campaigns have to be completely transparent as far as funding. Individual citizens have no influence on political campaigns when corporations can give 100s of millions of $$ to campaigns.
