Super PAC excesses should prompt another look at Citizens United ruling

I agree wholeheartedly that the Supreme Court should revisit the Citizens United decision and put the brakes on the outrageous amount of money being spent on presidential campaigns by supposedly "independent" Super PACs ("Buying the presidency," Feb. 24).

When politicians never stop chasing the money needed to get elected or re-elected, it's time to do something about it. There is something truly wrong when all those millions of megabucks are being spent on negative ads while the country is facing an enormous debt and millions of people are without jobs, homes and a decent quality of life.

Where is the justice in that?
