While political speech is one of our most treasured freedoms, it is becoming apparent that unlimited campaign spending, and now seemingly unlimited political ad spending by corps, unions or other groups, has created an atmosphere of 24/7 campaigning. we weren't even finished with obama's first year and already there is talk about who is the next gop presidential candidate. congressman, senators and even the president have to basically campaign their entire term instead of working more on the job they were hired to do. obama spent over half a billion dollars on his campaign.
should there be limits on everyone, candidates, corps, unions, political parties? would these limits stop what is seemingly an excessive amount of campaigning by all parties/candidates? and would this foster a more open and fair election system?
