Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
If elected, I expect a candidate to do the bidding of his/her donors. I'd prefer that to be millions
of working class people. It'd be nice to think a president could take money from the corporations and billionaires and then just do what's right, it never seems to work out that way though.

primary today, I would vote for: Undecided

(7,830 posts)6. Each person's donors can donate no more than $2,800 each...
...which of our candidates do you think so lowly of that they can be """corrupted""" and """bought out""" by $2,800?
