You read it here first: Bernie will take PAC money

55. People HATE the money machine. Use it against them.

If I outright try to buy you are you going to see it as a good thing?

Not me - I am insulted. A lot of voters have dropped out of the system in the last 40+ years because of this. It was not such a big issue in 1960 when I voted for JFK or in 1972 when I worked for McGovern but it is a huge problem today.

This is one of the issues that is drawing people to Bernie the most. We are all tire of our so called principled candidates taking all the money they can get their greedy little paws on and then telling us they are going to represent us. Lies.

That list contains some of the worst offenders when it comes to the mess we are in. The only one with any value at all is CITCO and then only because they donate oil to charities here in the USA that help the poor with energy bills.

I do expect that if Bernie wins the nomination that he will take money from the Unions, environmental groups, groups like Emily's List that work for specific issues he supports and he may even take from a select few corporate PACS but I would guess that he will be very selective in who he works with.

Times have changed. When President Obama finally took money from PACS we were not yet aware of just how complicit the corporations and banksters were in the Great Recession that came just before the election. Today we better understand who and how the rich have been buying our elections.

To me the death knell for a politician is any sign that they are playing with the big boys. We have been had. And it needs to stop. NOW.
