McCain and other RINOs have to answer for a campaign finance law that is anti-freedom and American (I expect Dems to be anti American as a given).

Any one person or groups of people as in corporations or unions or PACs or churches should be allowed to donate as much money as they went whenever they want to whichever candidate they want as long as there is fill disclosure as to who paid how much to whom.

For example let us say some crazy trillionaire backs a candidate as his sock puppet to run for president and donates millions to get him elected. That sounds like the rich crazy guy wins but if people see his funding comes from that source they would reject him accordingly.

Freedom firggin works! Let Freedom Ring!

The full disclosure over limiting spending is not my idea of course but I can't recall where I first heard it - if anyone can so we can give credit to where it is due I appreciate it.

What if the Corporation is a wholly owned subsidiary of Communist China, or Pakistan, or Saudi Arabia?

Should that corporation have the same right to influence elections as an individual citizen of the United States?

Just asking.
