Cited Book: Is That a Politician in Your Pocket: Washington on $2 Million a Day

How campaign contributions in Washington amount to legalised bribery.

Sifry and Watzman lay it all out with no bark on it in this devastatingly straightforward book — the overt corruption of our country through what we politely call the campaign finance system. Legalized bribery is the root of our political rot and few people know more about how to fix it and have done more to fix it than the good folks at Public Campaign.
