The DNC, RNC or any Official party can only run these ads if they use money that is Federal Money - Fed Money is individual contributes to the party (up to $2,000 limit)

George Soros cannot give his money to the DNC but he can give it to a group that falls under the 527 Tax Code and they are not incorporated. But if Soros, himself wanted to run ads, he can
