buying of political


Whitman, a billionaire who has said she's willing to spend $150 million of her own to win election, is still $5.2 million short of the record for self-funding.

this should be illegal, people trying to "buy office"..
there should be a different method to political funding, with stern controls, which returns the election process back over to the people, but also, people have to be smart. No matter how much a persons spends of their own money, it should not given them an office seat, attention should be given to the "issues", and the value points their issues, address of the America people and the communities they reside.

people better get politically aware of what are the issues, and stand to support them.
people also, may well need to stand up, against lobbyist and the courts, taking away the democratic process.

California voters, denied marriage for gay people, then the court comes in and take away that democratic process of voting decision.

Now, this candidate, who has excess wealth, now wants a political position, and they can't earn it by identifying with the social values of the people, so they try to buy it by saturation of dollar based advertisement. all the while, the people get hoodwinked and distracted from the real issues, and caught in the drama of what money makes spin.

Californians may need to wake up, they fell for it once, when it let a action media movie star, take the lead seat in the state, and since then, it has been downhill with every program within the state, in dis-array..

and yet, the people have not awakened.

It appears, that citizens are not paying attention to the demise of communities one after the next. Even the mess in the City of Bell, where the city leaders paid themselves amounts which equal, 10 times (plus), of what the medium income average is slated to be. All for doing nothing, and sliding in changes, that gave them these options to do so, and the people remained unaware.

"Goons"... and people remain unaware, when the mobs of mafia structured process, takes down states and cities.

We saw a mafia styled organization decimate America for 8 yrs, and people remained unaware, until collapse not only took down a nation, but crippled the global economy, while distracting it with trumped up wars, and talk of terrorism, while the looting reached every crevice of the nation and global sphere.

propaganda machines, which hoodwink the masses, with many pundits on the media flapping their lips, jockeying for front seats in front of the camera. They will say anything, if it guarantees them a pay check bigger than the next pundit.
