16. I'm with you
Biden is still my only choice. I have no enthusiasm for any of the other candidates either.

Campaign reform needs to have a few big names and someone in the media that people respect to take up the torch. Surely there has to be one individual in the media who has enough integrity to take this on.

Personally, I think the 2nd tier candidates from both parties and their supporters should band together and make enough noise that the issue can no longer be ignored. A grassroots push across the nation. Lou Dobbs was able to push the illegal alien issue by doggedly pursuing the topic daily on his show. In my opinion, that is one of the main reasons why it is being discussed.

We need to have someone with exposure to do the same with campaign reform which includes campaign finance, the role of the media and how the primaries are ran. I am not ready to give up yet. It is time that money and corporate America is taken out of the picture and this country is handed back to the citizens.

My question is how do we get the ball rolling?
