White House Petition: Make Lawmakers Wear Logos Of Financial Backers On Clothing, Like In

[eating_nachos]

Since most politicians' campaigns are largely funded by wealthy companies and individuals, it would give voters a better sense of who the candidate they are voting for is actually representing if the company's logo, or individual's name, was prominently displayed upon the candidate's clothing at all public appearances and campaign events. Once elected, the candidate would be required to continue to wear those "sponsor's" [sic] names during all official duties and visits to constituents. The size of a logo or name would vary with the size of a donation. For example, a $1 million dollar contribution would warrant a patch of about 4" by 8" on the chest, while a free meal from a lobbyist would be represented by a quarter-sized button. Individual donations under $1000 are exempt.

I don't think it will matter to the masses they will see the logo of some company that provides half the jobs in their area and be okay with who supports the candidate.

It does seem like some heads should be rolling. They thew us Bernie Maddolf so go back to sleep or shut up.

Lol, I've heard this idea somewhere before, but I can't remember where it was from.
