Corporate funding is the enemy of free and fair elections.
http://www.twitlonger.com/show/9p0adn

One citizen. One dollar. One vote. | Public Announcement 4.10.11 | #USDOR US Day of Rage

Corporate influence corrupts our political parties, our elections, and the institutions of government.

Bought by hard and soft dollars, disloyal, incompetent, and wasteful special interests have usurped our nation’s civil and military power, spawning a host of threats to liberty and our national security.

We have had enough.

3. A;ll the more reason Democrats had best start right now, getting
into every niche and cranny motivating long lost
apathetic Democrats. There are more registered
Democrats than Republicans. In Fla, for example,
records show there were over 600,000 registered
Democrats more than registered Republicans. We
have let Democrats fall to the wayside. I am
now going to be sarcastic. Many of those Democrats
are not rich or in upper income range.
