			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There has to be an effective way to change “business as usual” in politics. </p>
<p>One of the quickest and easiest ways for elected public officials to profit from their office is unregulated &#8220;Campaign Donations&#8221;.  Don&#8217;t be fooled this is not a freedom of speech issue.  Campaign Donations ensure the wealthy and corporations have public officials and law makers in their pockets while the average American can&#8217;t even be heard. </p>
<p>Once in office, these public officials cannot discuss legislation on its merits, without worrying about pleasing well-funded lobbyists or wealthy donors.</p>
<p>Why should Corporations have rights that are normally reserved for Human Beings?  Does anyone really believe a Corporation has the right of freedom of speech.</p>
<p>How would you like a federal campaign finance system that reduces special interest influence and ensures that candidates and elected officials are freed from the money chase and focus on working on issues important to constituents instead of big dollar contributors? How about a fix to the broken and out-of-date presidential public funding program.</p>
