Interesting thing:

I had a bet (that I lost) on this subject: Citizen's United. The bet was whether every single Democratic nominee had pledged to 'strike it down' or 'legislate it away' (or otherwise combat it or be against it). They all have.

So, it really can be accurately stated that the Democratic Party is committed to repealing, in effect, both the First and Second Amendments.

If you think that is an overstatement, consider that every Democratic presidential candidate singularly and explicitly has denounced the Supreme Court case that overruled the law that said the Federal government could ban the making and/or showing of a movie on the explicit ground that it was critical of a presidential candidate, but also said that the resulting penalty of a jail term for the producers is one of the proper penalties.

I wonder if any of the Democratic nominees are even aware of the factual background of Citizen's United, or of any of the provisions of the law that was struck down?

Additionally, how in the world does *anyone* support the notion that the act of making or showing a movie with a political message should be illegal, but also subject people to a term in prison on top of that? How can *anyone* support such a law? This has had me baffled for a long time....
