What Barack Obama said...

Last week the Supreme Court reversed a century of law that, I believe, will open the floodgates for special interests, including foreign corporations, to spend without limit in our elections.

I don’t think American elections should be bankrolled by America’s most powerful interests or, worse, by foreign entities. They should be decided by the American people.

If language is not correct, then what is said is not what is meant. If what is said is not what is meant, then what must be done remains undone. Morals and art will deteriorate. Justice goes astray.
