As President Obama indicated in his speech before the joint session of Congress, the Supreme Court's 5-4 vote to declare corporations to have the rights of persons was a terrible error. The creation of super PACS to essentially buy elections with huge donations of anonymous money is destroying our democracy, a sell out to Big Money. There is a simple solution under Roberts Rules of Order: a motion to reconsider the vote. If one of the five changes his vote to against, the 5-4 result will restore our democracy. Any other solution to this travesty requires a long fight in Congress where the millionaires in power are constantly at loggerheads and want the super PAC money for their own reelection campaigns. Let us bring back democracy, what's left of it, by reconsidering that 5-4 vote. God save the Republic.
