While it is enticing to see McCain/Feingold rolled back, this is not constitutional. Corporations are not people even though a law clerk fraudulently wrote a headnote in the Santa Clara v. Souther Pacific Railroad case which is cited as the precedent for corporate personhood.
Corporations (profit and non-profit) are statutory entities created in law. They have whatever rights we grant them in law. The founding fathers knew the threat that corporations were to the republic.
Here is a great discussion on the threat that corporations pose to our republic: Unequal Protection: The Rise of Corporate Dominance and the Theft of Human Rights by Thom Hartmann
