Whether it is a super PAC or not, I have been blessed with wealth, and I think I have responsibility to use it properly.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I have no control over the super PAC; all I do is write the check.
I don't take PAC money. I don't take special interest money.
By law, super PACs are required to disclose their donors. There are groups that have never had to disclose their donors, non-profits such as the Sierra Club, Planned Parenthood, the NAACP, and the NRA. If you want more disclosure, super PACs are a step forward.
The super PACs have brought an element of fear into the equation. The fact that they can bring this money into the campaign, basically ambush you out of nowhere, and you'll have no way to fight back.

I've made it clear that I'm not taking special interest PAC money or accepting donations from lobbyists - ever. I want to represent the interests of the citizens.
It's time for grassroots citizens to have a president that's focused on them rather than the super PACs.
I'm asking regular folks to be my super PAC.
I would do away with super PACs. I think it's a cancer.
