When the Supreme Court decided the case 'Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, henceforth allowing corporate soft money to to influence US elections, Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) cynically opined that it would lead to the election of the "congressmen from Wal-Mart. Turns out, he may be right.
Meet Murray Hill, Inc., the first corporation to run for Congress in the US........
So which corporation would you vote for??????? What a lovely choice there will be!:ahhhhh:
Frankly, I applaud the idea.
Cut out the pretense and the middlemen, I say. Let those high paid lobbyists go and get a job. If they were digging ditches or sweeping streets at least they would be contributing something.
How will they work out all the perks if Murray Hill Inc. becomes President? Who would be the first lady?
