Hey good job not responding at all to what I wrote. I am definitely convinced now

You wrote about "ancient" history. Your points were correct but irrelevant.

On January 21, 2010, the court issued a 5โ€“4 decision in favor of Citizens United that struck down the BCRA restrictions on independent political expenditures by corporations as violations of the First Amendment,

It doesn't matter who wins if the corporations have bought both sides.

Are you going to not respond to what I wrote or spew your opinion?
