Lawrence Lessig on Corruption of US Politics Based on Money

Here are two "thinker" videos about a professor, Lawrence Lessig, on YouTube about the issue of how money affects US Politicians in a corrupt type of way - they don't get the funds directly, but as campaign funds. Lessig is thinking about running for Congress, and asking for supporters.

This also talks about how to change the system using the internet, and is a good view of one reason why I write this blog - we gotta do something...


This is a video of a Danish news show interviewing Lessig.

This is a video by Lessig on two major changes needed.

If you have the time, watch them... makes you think. His mantra is we need a grass roots movement to fix Washington now, before fixing global warming, etc.
