Debate the puppet master

When it comes to breaking up big banks or overturning Glass Steagall or even Citizens United, I think it is long past the time to say take me to your leader!

With Goldman Sachs and Citigroup as Hillary's top contributors, if there are going to be.more debates, maybe it should be a debate between a representative of the people (ex. Bernie) and representatives of the big financial institutions. Let's get it straight fron the source. Tell the CEOs they are cowards if they won't take the stage.

For Jeb Bush, same thing. Since all the money is secret, but we know the Waltons and the Koch's will spend over $1 billion, tell them we want to talk their boss, not a puppet. After all they get more money from big donors than from the people are saying they want to represent.

Let's smoke them out!
