Bernie Sanders - We have to pass a constitutional amendment to end Citizens United ruling. A Corporation is not a person and a handful of billionaires cannot pollute and take over the political system by spending unlimited sums of money in secret to elect candidates who support their agenda

Bernie Sanders - We To Have To Pass A Constitutional Amendment To End Citizens United Ruling 

"In 2010 alone, GOP congress members received more than $58,797,874 in contribution from the financial industry. They are not your representatives. They are the representatives of the multinational corporations who buy them" remarked Cenk Ugyur in relation to the recent bill that was passed with overwhelming support by the GOP members of the Senate. According to experts, such move has nothing to do with lowering gas prices but only serves to increase the profits of the oil companies.  


Cenk had Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders on his show to discuss these recent events. "We have to pass a constitutional amendment to end Citizens United ruling that brings forth the radical opinion that a Corporation is not a person and a handful of billionaires cannot pollute and take over the political system by spending unlimited sums of money in secret to elect candidates who support their agenda" said Bernie Sanders.
