LETTERS / Will The Real Citizen Rise?

Dear Editor:
      
A great country deserves great people… Where are the leaders who won’t take bribes, who make sure that people come before profits, who will work for our health, environment and clean elections?  Will the real citizen rise and call their elected officials to publicly declare to support a constitutional amendment that will overturn citizens united (corporations) v Federal Elections Commission.  The supreme court decision gave corporations the right to spend unlimited funds for their candidates without disclosure.  This has seriously undermined our elections and our democracy making bribery look like a kid’s game. 
 
Will the real citizen rise and call your governor, senators, representatives and ask them to publicly support a constitutional amendment to get big money our of our elections now? We need to show the world how a real democracy works.
