Why does it take a billionaire to fund? Think about that one.
The problem is with Americans they have allowed their country to be run by big corporations. All without a shot being fired.

I do support independent candidates when they are reasonable and I like what they have to say. I also encourage my friends and others to vote for them. Guess what? None of them ever do. They vote for their party. They complain and bitch and moan and refuse to vote for anyone else. I don't know how to change their minds.
It costs a lot of money to become president. I don't like it. I would love to see it changed, but that would take getting candidates into office who would be willing to change the system. Try telling people we want you to take away the system that allows you to raise millions, influence many elections including yours and maybe even make you and your friends rich and see how it goes.
Yes, we brought this system upon ourselves, but I think, at this point, something revolutionary would have to happen to change it.
