Is it possible Trump has provoked second thoughts about the use of superpacs?

Of all the other candidates, Cruz is by far the most astute, and it should be easy for him to see how he will be on the losing side of a powerful argument about what Cruz owes to the open borders plutocrats.

How does it feel to know that you’ve joined the far left? Bernie Sanders and Barrack Obama are nodding in agreement with you. SuperPACs are what caused Justice Alito to speak out against Obama at his state of the union address.

Despite the fantasy being promoted here, Trump didn’t reject the superPAC. The PAC was shut down due to the investigation of how they got their hands on Trump’s donor list. It costs big bucks to run and only a coward tries to force others out by demanding that they turn down support.

Our nation’s founders deliberately set up a system that allows rich and poor alike to run for office to avoid an aristocracy. There is something fundamentally wrong with wanting a nation where only the super rich can afford to run.

I don’t want an America where only a few dozen families are able to run for office.
