Amanda is joined by Marisa Kabas to talk about fundraising in the presidential election and how campaigns really use our money. They start with an explanation of corporate fundraising, as well as the approach some candidates are taking to focus on small donations. Next, they talk about the Citizens United ruling and how it continues to influence our political system. They discuss the prospects of dark horse candidates like Pete Buttigieg and Julian Castro. They also tell us how fundraising has changed in the internet era. Then they close out the show with a conversation about how to get the best return on your money if you only have a limited amount to donate.
