The Clinton Foundation lost double: With neither Hillary nor Bubba as officeholders or candidates for the first time since 1992, the “two for the price of one” power couple now has no influence to sell for seven-figure donations to the family slush fund.
Presidential elections in the US are increasingly little more than a contest between two candidates to see who can put together the biggest campaign and spend the most money for media expenses and other costs. Real issues and values are often overlooked in a race which features two less-than-stellar figures backed by supporters with deep pockets. In the meantime, potential candidates from all political ideologies are daunted by the prospect of paying for media time and space and dare not step forward. This problem can be easily overcome by granting all candidates in elections free access to the media to express their ideas. For more, please see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
