I’d love to see that happen. Unfortunately, politics has turned uglier and uglier to the point that good people don’t want to destroy their livelihood or the safety of their loved ones in order to run for office. Add that to the fact that just to get on the ballot in some races costs upward of 10K unless you can get thousands of people to sign for you. Then there’s the huge amount of money it costs to run for a campaign. Then, if you get people to give money to back you, then they think you owe them. It’s crazy. My husband was encouraged to run for office (because he is a rare man of integrity). We decided it wasn’t a good idea for those reasons listed. We need election reforms that would enable the common man to run.
Campaign Finance Reform:
1. Every campaign shall begin with a campaign fund of zero dollars. The FEC shall recognize no carry-over campaign funds (AKA: “war chests”) from one election to the next.
2. Campaign funds are to be used for directly related expenses. Other costs can be made up for by donations in kind or personal funds.
3.At the close of the election, all parties participating in the election, regardless of winning or losing, shall refund ALL leftover campaign funds BACK to the universe of donors in equal amounts.
4. Any person desiring to keep their campaign funds must immediately declare such funds as income in that tax-year and pay proper taxes upon annual filing.
Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America
Isn’t it terrible that a Republican Congressman from Nebraska just got indicted for possibly telling some lies to investigators about campaign contributions, when half of the United States Congress lied about made up scams, and when Mark Zuckerberg, in my opinion a criminal, is allowed to spend $500 million and therefore able to change the course of a Presidential Election, and nothing happens to them. Comey lied, Schiff lied, Crooked Hillary lied, McCabe lied, the two lovers, Peter and Lisa, lied. They all lied having to do with Russia, Russia, Russia, because they knew it was a SCAM, and they all lied having to do with Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, because they knew it was a SCAM—and they made up fairy tales about me knowing how badly it would hurt the U.S.A.—and nothing happens to them. Is there no justice in our Country?

Schiff just accused Robert Mueller of being senile to explain to the liberal flock why Mueller indicted nobody for conspiring with Russia.
Now he’s attacking Merrick Garland for not prosecuting Trump.
The law keeps interfering with Schiff’s delusions.

If WE the American Patriot doesn't do this, then who will? The same old same old people we have making money off Our Government...the difference is, it is OUR COUNTRY and we would treat it differently, we wouldn't be there to ‘make money’ and power like they are...you heard that Pelsmelly’s California home is in the millions with 15 acres... that is not how WE think, we think of making America great for the people who work America, not someone like Brainless Joe that has lived in the Senate, and now is trying to run a Country he knows nothing about...we know about America, the truckers, the farmers, the mailman, the grocery store manager, the tire shop man or woman that changes your tires,
you see the difference, WE WORK, they don't...they got their money from stealing it, WE DO NOT STEAL...we have a backbone and stand up for what is right, THEY DO NOT...
If WE don't start standing up and saying what we think, we are NOT GOING TO HAVE A COUNTRY TO WORRY ABOUT, so then what are WE going to do???
