    i think we should start with anyone in public office, pretty much endlessly. let’s root out corruption where it has actually taken place, not where it MIGHT.

      Oh, definitely, the problem with that, as we’re seeing with the Supreme Court, it’s the people in power who are deciding the rules.

      Now we could make a change with some form of anti-corruption constitutional amendment, but that requires a 2/3rds majority in the Senate and we can’t even get 60 votes to break a filibuster much less the 67 needed for an amendment.
