@rickhasen How does foreign $$ stay out if non-US citizen sets up a US corp, uses that $$ to fund elections here? -
.
@rickhasen Indeed, a US corp with foreign investors spending on US elections by its nature infuses foreign $$/capital into campaigns, no? -
.
@rickhasen While some states permitted corporate $$ in US elections, didn't CU open up federal elections—potentially to incl. foreign $$? -

@jonathanhsinger I've responded to you,& other critics, of my claim that Obama's Citizens United statement is false: http://electionlawblog.org/?p=69833 -
.
@rickhasen Is SCOTUS absolved if it asks Congress to act when it knows it won't? On dark money? VRA? Obamacare? -
.
@jonathanhsinger Not absolved. But that doesn't render the President's statement any truer.
