You're wrong there. What Fred didn't like, and the main reason he supported CFR, was the anonymous big donors giving money to push their candidate and bash the opposition, with NO accountability. He would love to have individuals figure prominently in the fundraising, and feel 'ownership' of their government again.
FDT did not support CFR to silence anyone on an individual level. The Democrats have always out raised us because our rich work for a living and do not have disposable income, they are invested in their business. A millionaire Hollywood type will drop a million in a second to help a Democrat because their money is right there, ready to spend, not tied up in capital.
He wanted to level things in our favor.
Indeed the giant Soros and such funded organization on the Democrats side bear out Fred's concern. They do have more money to throw around because their rich from sports and Hollywood don't care what they spend money on. They will drop a million for crack right after sending a million to the Democrats or their flunkies. they don't have families and employees to worry about, or at least any they care about.
It just did not work out as planned, now he is for a free for all. .
Damn, why is that so hard to get.
