Citizens United established what the SCOTUS Blog refers to as “the personhood of corporations.” By equating corporations with people, opening the floodgates for unlimited donations to PACs, many voters feel the need to compromise their value system in order to win the White House. The coins in this game are double-sided, and values become a hindrance when large amounts of are on the line; better to discard what we hold dear in the short run for the sake of money and power. After all, $649,182 doesn’t grow on trees and money talks in today’s politics.

The fix has been in for a long time, with the mainstream media selling us the narrative that Jill Stein will win the nomination for the Green Party from the beginning. Voters attempting to select candidates the the country really needs are turned away at the gate. American citizens need to stand up to the neo-liberal establishment and make their voices heard.

Whereas California’s environmental activist is perhaps the only politician in world history who’s ever said, “no money in politics”, other candidates don’t share his philosophy.

This blatant effort to suppress the vote just shows exactly why we need a candidate who will stand by his values and refuse to allow money to corrupt the process any further. Once the people wake up and become more informed, I have no doubt that Americans will #feelthechern.
