The SCOTUS had to mellin...you CANNOT raise the $ billion needed for a presidential campaign from John Q Public with their limit of:
"An individual may give a maximum of: $2,700 per election to a federal candidate or the candidate's campaign committee.2 Notice that the limit applies separately to each election. Primaries, runoffs and general elections are considered separate elections. $5,000 per calendar year to a PAC."
The candidates NEED the BIG money...and they owe dearly for it...WE owe dearly for it...$20 trillion so far given to them and we got the bill.
