What actions are the states taken to influence ANY elections.. The are allowing those individuals above.. to exercise their constitutional right.. Do you have any problem with unions and groups like ACORN influencing the elections?

State's Rights is States' Rights, but Robert's ain't been right yet!
Neither is your understanding of ones legal right to do with your own money what you want..

I believe that's, "legal persons". Collectives are not individuals.

A State Charter does not have any constitutional rights. It has no existence beyond paper. My dog is more a person than a piece of paper. Some dogs actually HAVE papers as an extension of their real existence. Mine has newspapers.

Corporations are not "ones", they are manys. Monies, that is!
Multinationals and foreign corporations are a bigger concern in my book, because they may not always be working in American's best interests when they try to influence legislation here.

There is no "Collectives" in a Corporation. Its a Corporation of ONE Business..

Without any constitutional rights, there is no constitutional obligation.. Are you telling me Corporations arent obligated then to pay taxes?

Wrong.. The legal definition of a corporation is [SIZE=3]corporation[/SIZE] n. an organization formed with state governmental approval to act as an artificial person to carry on business (or other activities), which can sue or be sued, and (unless it is non-profit) can issue shares of stock to raise funds with which to start a business or increase its capital.

Neither are corporations or the individuals when they donate to campaigns. They are all buying their OWN influcence.. they are not contributing to ensure the candidate does whats in the best interest of the nation..

Thats PERSON.. SINGULAR!!
A single corporation is still a plural! I think it requires at least two different persons as officers.
As soon as you tell me what the word "collective" has to do with Corporation because Corporations are NOT "collectives"..
