Amend the Constitution To Restore Public Trust in the Political System: A Practitioner's Perspective on Campaign Finance Reform

Udall, Tom
Abstract
The just completed 2010 elections show how truly broken our national campaign finance system really is. The integrity of our elections, and ultimately our governance, depends on a vigorous debate in which American citizens truly have a voice. Unfortunately, our elections no longer focus on the needs and interests of individual voters, but are instead shaped by multi-million dollar ad campaigns funded by special interest groups with seemingly limitless resources.
