A better approach would be to set aside $1 billion for each party to spend for re-election. Government $$$ with no outside funds.
And I agree that the Democrats get quite a lot from the entertainment industry comprised of many nutcases.
But still the republicans take $$$ from arms manufactoring bent on involving us in wars. Not to mention Wall Streeters setting up Ponzi sceams.
It's all pretty sickening and when a true American man like Ron Paul speaks they call him crazy. Yes crazy because he wants to right a insane political system.
This country was set up on States Rights. Let a state decides if it wants gay marriage. A death penalty. An industrial state comprised of corporations. Or even a state which gives most to the poor. Let a state decide want it wants.
This country survived for a 150 years with no income tax and no give aways or involvement in any foreign wars.
And if was because everyone worked hard and was not taken advantage of by either the rich or poor.
And it can be thay way again and would be if I were running the United States of America.
