Best Legislature That Money Can Buy!

Comment on: Need For Campaign Cash Opens Door For Lobbyists at 7/9/2009 11:56 AM EDT
What we need is a "campaign channel" in every media market. With the conversion to digital tv, there is a lot of available bandwith. We the people ought to dedicate some of that bandwith to create a channel on which candidates for different offices could air campaign speeches & infomercials within equally distributed time slots at varying times of day.
Of utmost importance would be equal access to minor parties who could gather enough signatures to get on the ballot.
Candidates who accepted time on the public channel would sign an agreement to not poison the commercial channels with political advertising.
That's one way that we could put a dent into the scandalous way in which politics is practiced in America.
