Political Heat: Campaign finance reform preserves your right to be heard

"Under a model of campaign finance reform, spending limits ensure that everyone's voice is treated equally, that no one's ideas are treated better or worse based on their class or level of income. Political rights, including the right to express your beliefs and opinions, should transcend forces that require a person to have a leg-up on everyone else within society to really matter.

A good idea is a good idea, whether it comes from Wall Street or Main Street. Don't let conservative beliefs on 'free speech' ruin YOUR right to speak your mind, destroy your right to be heard. Campaign finance reform enables everyone to have an equal voice in our elections."

This is from a simple to understand, straight-forward argument for spending limits on candidate campaigns.  I don't see how any patriotic citizen of this great country can't agree whole-heartedly with anything but this.
