  2. ​ @maryowen6094  Watch some talks on AIPAC conferences. These are audicions. If a speaker does well, he/she will have their campaign financed. If not, someone else will be put up to run against them.

  3. Does she? She's on the right side, saying the right things and voting the right way on this bill. She is not the problem here.

  4. ​ @maryowen6094  They buy politicians, finance campaigns of those favorable to them, smear those opposing them and then it all starts paying for itself.

  5.  @thegoodpimps  Sure. But somehow the ones who get the most attention (that is, have the most money spent on) get elected. Like any product that is advertised well gets sold.

  6.  @thegoodpimps  The voter doesn't care about corruption. If he did, congress would look very different.

  8.  @thegoodpimps  I see them typically represent their donors rather than their voters. Is real makes this more obvious than anything. It does not make sense for a majority of congresss to support is real when you consider its conduct since its inception. It does make sense when you follow the money. The president's stance does not make sense until you see who made him, who has been paying him throughout his career. Some members of congress slip through. These are targeted to be unseated. AIPAC isn't coy about it either. Look up the quad and AIPAC.
