Please enlighten me on how to defeat the 'Big Guns'
Advertisements [?]
Wal-mart and the tobacco companies, the big guns of the GOP. Most intelligent people want to take them down because they may destroy the health of the U.S., but they are the lifeblood of the GOP now, after they only enjoyed a modicum of support from the RTLers and the NRA. I'm concerned. How does a free America deal with this problem?

I'm not just talking about the funding the GOP receives from these corporate monoliths, which is significant, but in the age where advertising is accompanied by ingenious and highly researched psychological persuasion techniques, they seem impossible to defeat. I'm concerned, and I'm new here, so what can be done, tell me?
