(62,325 posts)majority of people in this country. The corrosive, tainted, bribery of our politicians by Corporate 'cash'. People have wondered for a long time why our system of government has sunk to such a level of dysfunction, FOR THE PEOPLE, that over 60% of them didn't vote in the last mid term.
Because they now KNOW WHY. And they have begun refusing to cast votes for people who are nothing but tools of corrupt corporations. All we have to do is look at their donors, then look at their records on the issues they support.
OWS was the first sign of that awakening, which it turned out was pretty widespread.
And here you are PROMOTING that the one candidate in the race who has had the GUTS to REFUSE the bribes, needs to 'worry about getting more cash'.
Don't worry, the people are so ANGRY about this that they will make certain, as they have already, that the ONLY candidate with the guts to say 'NO, YOU CANNOT BUY ME" to these corrupt greedy corporate entities, has all that he needs to do what he has done already, against ALL ODDS, challenge their money ridden system and show them that when a good decent courageous human being stands up the people will stand with him.
If we have to get second jobs to out finance them, you can bet that people are SO ANGRY over this and SO MOTIVATED that they finally have a LEADER willing to defeate their dirty money, they will do that.
