Katrina vanden Heuvel:

Money in politics will pose a significant threat to our democracy for as long asCitizens United remains the law of the land, but that doesn’t mean we can’t make our electoral system fairer and more democratic.

If lawmakers and grass-roots activists follow their lead, the headlines next time will be different.
