"Isn't that Campaign Finance Reform?

Yes.

"If it is, it is about the XIVth Amend more than anything else."

How so?? Yours is the first comment I've seen that in any way connects CFR and the Fourteenth Amendment.

I would not doubt that. Corporations have been legal persons since the XIVth Amend got interpreted in several court cases, and now can own private property and can privately donate to political campaigns. CFR is oriented to controlling these legal persons. This is 99% of the reason CFR exists: the Unions are also Corporations—formerly a hugh issue and still not entirely quiet.
