If you're not aware of the handful of corporate megalomaniacs who've given enormous sums of money to PACs, and to candidates they feel will most likely respond to their political agendas, then you've not been paying attention.
Too many voters are easily swayed by glib political ads and the propaganda spewed by FOX and other corporate-controlled visual media. One needn't believe in a "shadowy corporate overlord" to see how misleading are the corporate-controlled political advertisements du jour.
And, finally, the relentless 'Bolton SuperPAC' ads over the last election cycle epitomize one of the effective strategies that corporate megalomaniacs use to convince voters to 'choose' candidates like Tom Cotton.
