Only those who try to restrain themselves from using corporate money could ever been seen as a true leader of the country.
Remember Power corrupts, and Absolute Power corrupts Absolutely.
or rather
Money corrupts, and control over Money Corrupts Absolutely.

Yet again, an open mic with a comment showing he believes the election results are predetermined. Surely we haven't forgotten the comment about Romney being the one that "the powers that be" want on the ticket. Now, we hear, on another open mic, this comment. Yeah, our votes mean something.....sure they do.......

Right because this couldn't be plain old confidence can it ? If you really feel that way then don't vote. But I bet you will be out there during the next election just like your vote counted for something. Or maybe you don't vote. In that case you have no say in what happens because you didnt vote.
