Piercing Mitt Romney's 'Corporate Veil'
I think what's being missed in the media coverage of candidate Mitt Romney is the insistence by Mitt to his own corporate 'personhood'. Piercing the veil,
"to "pierce the corporate veil", the legal term used to describe an action to have the corporation set aside for purposes of the litigation such that personal liability attaches, and personal assets can be reached"

of this sham person (I'm talking about the living breathing Mitt now) would expose the charade and charlatan for what he truly is.
In an action to pierce the corporate veil, "the corporation is not really a distinct individual, but is merely an extension or "alter ego" of its shareholders, being used to advance their private interests or to perpetrate a fraud."
Isn't this what Bain Capital is all about ? "Romney as Bain Capital's CEO and sole shareholder through 2002..."
