A snapshot of "democracy" in America
Here in California, there are two corporate candidates running for Governor. Here's how they're doing it:
Angelides, a multimillionaire Sacramento land developer, has raised nearly $32.9 million since 2003, about 71 percent of which has come from donors who have given him at least $10,000.
Arnold Schwarzenegger...has raised $113.4 million...About 75 percent of his donations have come from contributors who have given him at least $10,000 [including six people who have given more than $1 million each].
