Only one of three National Political parties, blunt an instrument causing too much First Amendment harm to be sustained under the current decisions of the u. S. Supreme court so we look we are very encouraged by the arguments today. The decision by the court to restore balance in the political system. We are limited in what they can accept, donors are forced to give money in super pacs and notforprofits and 527s that are much less accountable, much less transparent than candidates and Political Parties, preventing, forcing money to go in that direction we have a less Healthy System. With these aggregate limits we will see more candidates raise money, National Party and state parties raise more money, that is a more Healthy System than the Current System of restriction and forcing money into independent spenders rather than by candidates and Political Parties themselves.
