Hey, thanks for the criticism, ever so soft as it is.
I am forming an initiative for the Nov.06 general election that would criminilize monetary contributions from any source that cannot vote in the election.
This will separate free speech from direct involvement with the democratic process-the actual link between the voter and the candidate-and keep free speech from being used as cover for bribery. This will put up a firewall between the special interests and candidates and officeholders. This distinguishes the rights of speech and petition from the democratic process. You can talk-advertize, advocate your point-but not buy influence. I realize that this is not a perfect solution, but it is a heck of alot better than the present conditions, and it will kill the bulk of the dirty-dealing that is going on right now.
