Lawrence Lessig: We the People, and the Republic we must reclaim.

There is a corruption at the heart of American politics, caused by the 
dependence of Congressional candidates on funding from the tiniest 
percentage of citizens. That's the argument at the core of this 
blistering talk by legal scholar Lawrence Lessig. With rapid-fire 
visuals, he shows how the funding process weakens the Republic in the 
most fundamental way, and issues a rallying bipartisan cry that will 
resonate with many in the U.S. and beyond.
