Why shouldn't this be true on all political levels?

Why have you posted your vanity as news?

Why should someone "foreign" to your county be able to contribute

Why didn't you post this vanity in Chat?

Why should someone outside your Senate or House Congressional district be able to contribute

Why did you choose such a gooberhead name?

What the hell is a FNU LNU?

A Chinese midget farm?

Agreed!

Only citizens who can vote for a candidate should be able to contribute to their campaign.

Nothing about the government of the United States can be described as a democracy. In fact, the founders specifically stated that democracy does not work, thus, outspokenly avoided the same. Anyone calling our government a democracy is clearly ignorant. We have a republican form of governance or a constitutional representative government.

It is a serious issue.

One obvious "show" of this problem is the outside funding of referendums.

Put enough money into a referendum, and you can usually get the result you want.

And, constitutionally speaking, any American citizen can support any candidate anywhere in america.

Agreed, there should be a ban on political contributions from any company that derives a portion of it’s revenue from overseas.

I think that politicians should only be able to accept donations from people that they directly represent. So, no out of county, district or state.

I’ve been listening to Rush’s podcasts from the 2008 election. Obambi had, at least, $500 million from foreign sources. McCain stated he would verify and reject any foreign funds. Obambi stated he would use any funds received, and then ‘examine’ the source, and ‘perhaps’ return any ‘inappropriate’ donations. Obambi learned well from the Clintons (Johnny Chung, Charlie Trie) that Asian, Chinese tyrants love it when democRATS are in the White House.

""Foreign" Campaign Money Completely Destroys Representative Democracy"

Not true...
"Foreign" Campaign Money Completely DestroysControls Representative Democracy...

Ease of control is just one of the reasons why the Founding Fathers created a Constitutional Republic so as to prevent the many historical tyrannical pitfalls of "representative democracy"...

They just created fake ‘foundations’ like the Clintons and accept bribes disguised as donations from all over the world. 🤪

Libtards and rinos think it’s wonderful
