Doesn't fully, or cogently, explain how this public funding scheme would work on a national level. What makes Arizona different?

Thank you for putting something positive about public financing, our only way out of the system of "legalized bribery" that we have now.

An interesting and informative summary of a promising organization – (full disclosure) which I've watched and supported for some time.

This opinion piece presents the author's viewpoint clearly, but it provides very little context and ignores all opinions that conflict with the author's. It does not even mention McCain-Feingold, which is a major cause of funding problems for political candidates. It also does not mention that the amount of money spent on political campaigns in the U.S. is remarkably small, probably less than $10 per resident of the U.S. for the coming election. While I give credit to the author for style, the other ratings have to be low due to the lack of coverage of the major factors involved in the issue.
