5. We need Democratic Party either to declare it will NOT accept corporate money ....

or decide to fold it's tent -- anything else is pretense at opposition --

Meanwhile, election 2010 -- GOP got $7 for every $1 that Dems got -- !!!

They've still fighting to subvert their power to corporations for a lousey buck!!!

It doesn't have to be "illegal" to refuse these corporate bribes!!

7. Well, did you notice they're down to $1 for every $7 that GOP gets ... ???

That looks like a pretty obvious need to fold their tent --

plus, the little the unions give them -- about 1 cent for every $1 GOP gets --

would also point to private money being a losing cause for Dem Party .... !!

Maybe my crystal ball is out of whack?

Meanwhile, if everyone who wanted corporate money out of the elections gave

$5 to their candidates, we'd probably do OK -- ???
