Anyone else disgusted by the money required by this race? |
|
I just looked at the amount of money raised and spent. It is disgusting that it takes this.
Anyone want to improve public financing? I do.

my sons or daughter could never be President. It is obscene, this much money for a job that pays far less.

2. Disgusting, indeed. But in comparison to The War On Terra, it's a pittance. |
|
In addition to publicly financed elections, let's return to banning war profiteering.

Well..if a certain woman could do 5th grade math, all this money would be unecessary |
|
Our candidate could be resting up with his family, preparing for the campaign with McCain..instead of being stalked & harassed all over the country..

4. What's more disgusting to me - is that we're using it to fight within our own party |
|
I don't have an issue with individuals donating though - that is, at the heart... Public financing. In addition, it allows the candidates to get out to all the states. I can tell you, Obama's overhead has to be through the roof to rent those stadiums for rallies. Plus all the added security he needs, etc, etc.
