Hmm, not counting the favors you already owe due to corporate “donations”, will you refuse to accept corporate speaking “fees” (some call them pay backs for services rendered, see, eg, B Obama’s lucrative post-WH payments for simply talking to bankers) when you leave office?

You mean staying a citizen (and civil rights attorney who turned down corporate riches offered to me) concerned about the corrupting influence of corporations in a democracy?

Get all corporate money out of politics. Make lobbying illegal. Put limits on political campaign budgets. Limit the money; limit the influence.

Whether
@CoryBooker would be a good President has NOTHING to do with his color!
