Interesting idea, but, will this lead to a situation where only the wealthiest Americans can run for a Federal office? If you outlaw this will they have to change the federal income tax code to eliminate the campaign contribution deduction?
@Richmunnich Good point! Currently only the wealthiest and corporately backed work in congress and the white house. The Federal Campaign Fund allotment is a mere pitance and only given to those candidates selected in the primary process which is where and when the special interests buy thier candidate through "contributions"(payolla). Can you envision some new ways that candidates can bring thier message to the people without spending millions on smear campaigns and rah-rah conventions?
Why do we need more constitutional amendments. This country was started with the premise that all men are created equal, so why did slavery persist. It persisted because of interpretation. Laws made of words will only be misinterpreted. We need to listen to interpret to existing law fairly. We need to punish the government when it interprets the law wrongfully. Who's law is it? It is the peoples law not the governments law. We must not allow the government to determine what rights we have.
@NewAmericaNow In order to reclaim our voice in the democratic process, we must disable the corrupting monetary influences that control our "representatives" in all branches of state and federal governments. If you have an alternative method of achieving this goal please share it.

Great video, I hope this gets lots of views. It's probably the key issue to solving our problems.
