>>As long as it takes money to win and the government can offer services for supporting constituencies - there will be great power for the moneyed interests.

You're right. That's why the Kennedys got into the government business. The only real reform is reducing the power of government and moving it closer to the people, i.e., back to the states and localities.

That, of course, was the intent of the Founders, which is why they created a constitutional republic with clear limits on Federal power.

What in the hell does that mean?

Thank you for the links. Actually, I was looking to see if you could come up with 5 off the top of your head. I think you've answered my question.
