Mitt Romney is a businessman, a turnaround artist, a CEO. That is who he is. The former governor has experience in the public and private sector.

It's crazy that the Constitution has to be amended to clarify what for the majority of Americans is a clear and true statement: corporations are not people.

The blanket assertion that corporations are people obfuscates the complex issues at play in the changing business world. Corporation are institutions. People are people.

Corporations aren't people. They have no brains, no consciences, no capacity for intent or guilt.

Corporations are not people. They shouldn't be funding. They shouldn't be funding campaigns at all.

Corporations are a fictional entity that are designed to make money, and they're neither people nor patriots.

In my view, a corporation is not a person. A corporation does not have First Amendment rights to spend as much money as it wants, without disclosure, on a political campaign.

I think corporations and people are very different. People make corporations whatever it is that they're going to be.

I'm honored to serve as mayor of my hometown where our founders started America with three simple words: 'We, the people.' And when they said 'people' they didn't mean 'corporations.'

I don't think we should view corporations as people for the purposes of speech.
