- Go to Obama/Edwards take no lobbyist money? - The Facts
I'm with Dylan on this one. Public financing and personal financing,
period. No PACs or lobbyists or special interest groups or federally matching funds. No personal contributions over say, $9999. I mean, isn't that the cut-off point before the FBI and the Treasury Department investigate a deposit? Works for me...

Money in politics
True words: "all presidential candidates are tainted by their frantic efforts to raise money". Perhaps only complete public financing of campaigns would solve this problem.
