`A "democracy" in which 400 families give 50 percent of the money in
campaigns is not American democracy. It is a banana republic democracy. A
"democracy" in which candidates for Congress spend 30 percent to 70
percent of their time raising money from the tiniest fraction of the 1
percent is not a democracy that could be responsive to the people. It is
a democracy that will be responsive to those funders only. What America
needs right now is to recognize -- all of America, not just the
Democrats -- that until we fix this democracy, none of the urgent and
important policies pushed by these politicians is possible.''
