When it comes to breaking up big banks or overturning Glass Steagall or even Citizens United, I think it is long past the time to say take me to your leader!
With Goldman Sachs and Citigroup as Hillary's top contributors, if there are going to be.more debates, maybe it should be a debate between a representative of the people (ex. Bernie) and representatives of the big financial institutions. Let's get it straight fron the source. Tell the CEOs they are cowards if they won't take the stage.
For Jeb Bush, same thing. Since all the money is secret, but we know the Waltons and the Koch's will spend over $1 billion, tell them we want to talk their boss, not a puppet. After all they get more money from big donors than from the people are saying they want to represent.
Let's smoke them out!

Predictably.
You guys crack me up with the transparent rhetoric, poorly written.

(260 posts)Present your own truth why we can't ask to speak to the financiers. Are they cowards hiding in their ivory towers? Are we supporting them by allowing them to remain silent?

(260 posts)Your prediction that I would get 50 recommendations proved false. Call me names like poser if you like but I'm just a guy that hopes we can find some better ways to finance our elections and elect a candidate for the people.
