Mr. Johnson, Proud to have voted for you in November and my question is, do you feel like a complete economic collapse in the United States is imminent within the next 5 years?

Clearly, TV media outlets have a vested interest in keeping the status quo of our campaign finance system so they never discuss how it presents a huge problem for our democracy. I had only ever heard about Citizens United way back when Bernie Sanders was on Real Time with Bill Maher ~2 years ago. How can I convince people in my own social circle that this truly is the number 1 issue our country faces?

Ironically, the worse things get, the more people will move beyond cynicism and into action

I sure hope so, one friend of mine I talk to about these kinds of things feels that we're hopeless. I keep trying to tell him that it starts by electing Bernie Sanders (considering he's the only politician I can name off the top of my head who will even address the problem), but he just cant get over his other policies because he believes they are fiscally unsound
