Sounds illegal if commonplace. Will their be a trial to sort it out, or will this forever be just fingerpointing? A trial, I hope.

I would like to see all big campaign contributions be illegal, since they give the monied class and special interest groups like the unions a lock on politics. Every one of them is a bribe, including the ones from unions and the ones from preachers and the ones from millionaires and the ones from corporate officers.

Lets make the maximum donation a hundred bucks and otherwise support the elections with taxes. Then we won't see much more money wasted on political hate ads.
