The idea that corporations have the same First Amendment protections of free speech as people is troubling. Corporations are not people. They don't attend our schools, get married and have children. They don't vote in our elections.

I don't represent corporations.

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

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.

If corporations are people, as the Supreme Court wishes us to believe, they are stunningly unpatriotic ones.

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

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.

With Citizens United, the Supreme Court's declaration that corporations are people, the whims of one can silence the voices of millions.

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

In terms of political contributions, the free speech rights of corporations I don't think deserve the same protections as the free speech rights of real living, breathing, voting humans.
