You should send this clip out to your members...or at least the ones that like and/or respect former president Bill Clinton. This is a clip taken from his interview on the Daily Show this past week where he talks about the need to change the way the chase for money influences our political system.
He said, "If we could find a way for them [politicians] and their competitors, the challengers, to run for election without making them go out five nights a week in this endless hunt for funds so they can be on television when someone attacks them I think American would work better."
He says even more poignant stuff so watch and see.

Be sure and check it out! This is a huge endorsement for the movement...to have a former president, in addition to every single Democrat running for president, and a number of Republicans in congress, talking about the need to fix the money in politics problem. It is the pro-Democracy movement that is creating this conversation!
