(60,192 posts)40. Not at all. You have company.
One of Howard's biggest disappointments from 10 years ago was not getting electronic voting machines, designed and programmed by openly partisan Republicans, taken out of circulation. Citizens United is just another building block in Republican strategy to nullify our voting rights, of make them irrelevant. Howard not only sees this, but agrees with me (and you) on the degree of the danger it presents. If Howard knows, then Hillary knows. Frankly, I'd be surprised to hear that Bernie or O'Malley felt differently.

I REALLY hope you're wrong about Citizens United, and have grounds for thinking so.
