A thought occurred to me.
We have huge PAC's for everything. They wield the influence of the all mighty dollar in politics.
As a test here: how many would contribute $10.00 a month to a PAC for we the people?
Second question how many would contribute something?

i would contribute,but all this money giving,needs to be stopped,its basicly being used to buy our lawmakers,sowe the people have no say so
well my thought is not to give money to a politician but lobby for what the people want--not some large special interest group that will benefit at the expense of others
So you want to give money to people who think like you? That sounds very much like a 'special interest lobby'. Isn't that what you are complaining about now? You do know the reason that lobbies exist don't you? They represent the views of SPECIAL INTERESTS !!!!

somehow I failed to explain this well it seems since you missed the point.
I did not say give money to anyone.
If you think your view is special--yes then it would be a special interest group.
On the other hand if you think that you have views that many others hold, it would not be a "special interest".
The point is simple.
Who really represents you? If you think those you v**ed into office do, then you would have no interest in getting your views heard by them.
If you think they only hear those that lobby them then you may be interested.
