I am interested in working with others to eliminate special interest money and influence. The health care debate has demonstrated how disingenuous money makes people. Also obvious contradictions come from military contracts, base locations, etc:
What is being done to limit the $ influence on our legistators?
I see no reason for anyone to contribute money. Volunteers can canvas and promote but all materials should be available to all candidates.
I do not believe that elections should last more than eight weeks.
Or are we just so used to the corruption of democracy that the status quo is here to stay?
