Disqualification of Congress - Part One
FOUR FACTS OF ELECTORAL CORRUPTION
Fact 1 – Democratic and Republican party committee
chairmen require congressmen and women to solicit
campaign donations two to four hours every day, of
every year they serve in Congress.
Fact 2 – Senators and House leaders are required to
collect $10,000 everyday they hold office. They
individually receive more than $3,600,000.00 a year from
corporate and special interest campaign donors. That’s
23 times their yearly public salary of $165,000.00.
Whose interest will they represent?
Fact 3 – Corporate and special interests employ 63
lobbyists for every congressperson in Washington D.C.
These lobbyists influence public legislation toward
their employers’ benefit.
Fact 4 – The wealthiest one-tenth of 1%, that is one out
of every 1,000 Americans, finance 80% of federal
election campaigns. That leaves 99.9% (999 out of every
1,000 Americans) financing only 20% of our federal
election campaigns.
The corporations and special interests that pay for
federal elections receive those tax revenues our
society intended for our mutual social needs. Those social needs include: teachers’ salaries, low cost
college education, health clinics, affordable housing,
police, and fire services.
CONGRESS HAS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST
WHEN REGULATING CAMPAIGN FINANCE LAW -
PART ONE B
Congressmen and women have become toadies to corporate
power and bagmen for their Democratic and Republican party committee leaders.
The Democratic and Republican political parties, and
all members of Congress, have a conflict of interest
when regulating federal elections campaign financing.
“Conflict of Interest” means: Any financial or other
interest, which conflicts with the duty of loyalty
congressional representatives owe their constituents,
because it could significantly impair their
objectivity, or create an unfair political advantage,
for any individual, organization, or corporation.
The Electoral Corruption of Congress
PART ONE C
The Electoral Corruption of Congress +
The Conflict Of Interest of Congress =
The Disqualification of Congress and the Democratic and Republican parties
from all processes in the legislation
of Campaign Finance Law.
DIRECTLY LEGISLATING FEDERAL ELECTIONS
CAMPAIGN FINANCE LAW
The single most important element that defines a
democracy is its citizens’ power to legislate.
Legislative power is the heart of the state and rests
in the sovereign authority of its citizenry. Typically, in our Republic, citizens use their legislative power through their elected
representatives. But in approximately one half of our
states, and in thousands of cities and counties across
our country, legislation emanates directly from our
citizenry.
The Democratic and Republican political parties and all
members of Congress, because of their electoral
corruption and their conflict of interest in regulating
federal elections campaign financing, must be
disqualified from all processes in the legislation of
federal elections campaign finance law.
Therefore, our citizenry have the sovereign right, to
directly legislate federal elections campaign finance
law.
