If you think that none of today's presidential candidates care about people like you, check out Republican Scott Walker.
The Wisconsin governor not only cares, he wants to sit down with you, get your ideas, and stay in close touch. No matter who you are, Walker wants you to join his team, so his presidency can be your presidency.
Not a Republican? No worries. Walker doesn't check your papers.
Well...except for that million-dollar check you have to write to his super PAC.
That's the ticket price for entering Walker's inner circle, where you can discuss your policy concerns and seek personal favor -- straight from your lips to the candidate's ear. Even if you're a common working stiff, just give a million dollars and you're in.
Is this a great country or what?
Maybe you're wondering what, specifically, your money buys. Well, Scott's super PAC even prints out a handy purchasing slip showing what you'll get as an "Executive Board Member" of the campaign.
You'll get two private dinners with the governor, a Walker staffer dedicated to your needs, special briefings and weekly emails, bi-monthly conference calls, bi-annual retreats, and -- best of all -- an "Exclusive Executive Board Pin."
Golly, I haven't felt so included since the 1950s, when I became a member of "The Mickey Mouse Club" and got my own set of mouse ears.
When the Supreme Court descended into the Alice in Wonderland fantasy that corporations are people and money is speech, it was inevitable that American politics would devolve to a frivolous game that shuts out the workaday majority and enthrones a Koch-brothers plutocracy sustained by super PACs.

Donald Trump’s attacks on democracy, justice, and a free press are escalating — putting everything we stand for at risk. We believe a better world is possible, but we can’t get there without your support. Common Dreams stands apart. We answer only to you — our readers, activists, and changemakers — not to billionaires or corporations. Our independence allows us to cover the vital stories that others won’t, spotlighting movements for peace, equality, and human rights. Right now, our work faces unprecedented challenges. Misinformation is spreading, journalists are under attack, and financial pressures are mounting. As a reader-supported, nonprofit newsroom, your support is crucial to keep this journalism alive. Whatever you can give — $10, $25, or $100 — helps us stay strong and responsive when the world needs us most. Together, we’ll continue to build the independent, courageous journalism our movement relies on. Thank you for being part of this community. |
