In my lifetime, presidential candidates used public financing.
The 20 biggest donors this cycle have spent $2 BILLION on the midterms, the overwhelming majority of which has gone to help Republicans.
In the entire 2008 cycle, the last before Citizens United, total billionaire spending was $16 million.
We must get Big Money out of politics.
