No its not. Those are 2 different things. Spending money and spreading your viewpoint. I spread my viewpoint on here but I certainly don't have millions or billions to buy myself a candidate for office. ANYONE to blind to see what is going on is someone who should never be allowed to vote.

Default China bans GMO strains of Corn,US exports fall 85%

?US corn exports to China drop 85 percent after ban on GMO strains ? industry report ? RT USA

Good hit them where it hurts. Eventually the farmer will get tired of not being able to make a living because everyone is banning GMO's they will either fight back against Monsanto and others like them or go under.

So, I founded Wolf PAC, which has only one, unstoppable mission -- amend the constitution to get the corrupting influence of money out of politics. We're not interested in awareness -- we're already quite aware of how screwed we are. We're not interested in consciousness raising or being a respected institution inside Washington, DC. We're interested in results!
Do you not realize that the problem could be the voters are uninformed, unable to comprehend, flat out ignorant or unable to think critically and have demostrated the inability to identify a photo of John Kerry, think Teddy Roosevelt just died and surprised to find the earth rotates around the sun?

Did you stop to think that legislators you elect are without ethics, morality and are ignorant or just profiteers?

Remember the legislator who thought Guam would tip over if too many troops landed on one side.

The CO legislator who had no idea what a hi capacity mag/clip was that she wanted to make illegal.

The leguislator who had 90K$$$ in his freezer.

The legislators who passed obamacare without reading it.

the president who said you could keep your doctor.

The speaker who said 'we have to pass it to see what is in it"

Voters re-elect these same legislators over and over.

The voters are the problem not big money.

It is beyond any attempt at explanation, isn't it?

Well, except for one. It once again raises the question of paid propaganda. Certainly it's cheaper here than retaining Mike Huckabee.

So we can be demonized by the DNC smear machine just like the Republicans? No thanks, I'll stick with the GOP.
