Frankly...if most of the money could be removed from the election process...that would be fine with me. I'm just trying to be pragmatic...and recognize how corrupt money can flow around rules and regulations. Actually...the internet may make this whole discussion moot. People may rely less and less on newspapers and television...and get most of their information from a wide variety of sources on the internet. Two years ago...I subscribed to the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times...and I had a television. Now I have none of the above...and I don't miss them a bit. Electronic Town Meetings...like Ross Perot proposed...will probably become the norm. The internet may be the best friend of We the People...if 'they' don't heavily censor it...or shut it down completely.
