Democracy: Priceless?

[momknowsbest]

so this candidate for city council in the big apple is asking people for a $1 contribution.

and has this to say...

--------------------------
WHY ONE DOLLAR?

Let's face it, attempts to reform campaign finance have yet to produce their intended results. The fact is that special interests still sway disproportionate influence over legislators and executives across the country.

Talking about reform while accepting huge chunks of special interest money is not my idea of how our democracy should operate.

By contributing $1 to my campaign for public office, your name will appear on my list of contributors, amongst other like-minded Americans in New York City and beyond who are ready for action, not just promises of change!
