OK. Who talks about it a lot? Who will be spending the most? Welcome to our world.

I just saw a TV ad. I'm sure glad to know there is a cease fire in Gaza, nuclear arms are reduced, and human trafficking is down. What a woman.

There's hope.
Senator Bernie Sanders, a contender in the 2016 Democratic Primary, has filed a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court's Decision. Further, both Sanders and Hillary Clinton have said that, if elected, they will only appoint Supreme Court Justices who are committed to the repeal of Citizens United. In September 2015, Sanders said that "the foundations of American Democracy are being undermined" and called for sweeping campaign finance reform.
