Elections - Congressional Power to Regulate

Section 4. Clause 1. The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but Congress may at any time make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Place of chusing Senators.

Are you going to tell me that the Constitution allows for the government to deny due process to a corporation? Are you going to tell me that the Constitution allows for the government to confiscate private property of a corporation? Are you going tell me that the Constitution allows for the government to ban companies from owning guns? I know Obama -- and Sotomayor would tell me that. The government has no constitutional power to limit campaign contributions by corporation. I asked you earlier in this thread to find me that authority delegated by the Constitution to the government and you have yet to do that.

No. Regulating time and place is of course not the same thing as regulating speech.

As I said, the government has no constitutional power to limit campaign contributions by corporations.
