This argues against your fascist proposal. Why should it be difficult to weed out inferior and dishonest canidates. McCain has certainly benefited from his own legislation, because he would have been decisively defeated in the nomination process had he failed in campaign finance consolidations.

Politicians will support it when it works to their favor, and abandon it when their own special interests dictate.

In this article, I suggest a source of revenue for public financing of political campaigns that also reduces the undue influence of large donors.

It keeps being moved on the calendar behind more important legislation and with one week remaining,perhaps it will be a dead issue.......this year. Sun, 11 May 2008 23:09:29 +0000 http://www.publicampaign.org/blog/2008/04/23/in-new-york#comment-24832 I think the Barack obama should win the election because he is the right leader for this great land. And I think he can do a good job.

I am "just checking things out" so to say. What do you think of limited terms. Don't leave them up there long enough to become corrupted.

Hope the information on our site was useful to you. Thu, 13 Mar 2008 19:22:47 +0000 http://www.publicampaign.org/blog/2008/03/05/local-option-clears-legislature#comment-24156 I take exception to the U S Supreme Court's ruling that MONEY is a form of FREE SPEECH. Money has badly corrupted the entire election process. Money must not be permitted to distort election results. The Supreme Court's decision can be changed by congressional action and the sooner the better. Cities and states all over America are deciding to take money out of politics by opting for Public Financing. This movement must be encouraged until Clean Elections cover the map of America. Such action will restore democracy to the people. We must stop permitting our elected officials to be bought and owned by Special Interest Groups!

I just happened across this post and thought it was cool because I actually rummaged through this site a little bit while researching. I plan to touch on the subject again in future columns, so I'll keep you updated. Sincerely, Matt Styer Mon, 10 Mar 2008 02:47:33 +0000
