Pres. Obama, you can stop the onslaught of money that's corrupting our elections by changing 1 word in the IRS code.

Created by J.B. on March 20, 2014

"PRESIDENT OBAMA - FIX THE IRS 501(c)4 LAW, SO SUPERPACS CAN'T MONEY-BOMB THEIR WAY TO ANOTHER ELECTION WIN.
YOU CAN ENACT AN EASY SOLUTION WITH THE STROKE OF A PEN!"
Due to the Citizens United ruling, our elections have been under siege by overly powerful Superpacs, which have slipped below scrutiny by a little-known provision in the IRS 501(c)4 tax code.
The tax code, in its original form, states that political action groups can claim to be tax-exempt only if they EXCLUSIVELY FURTHER THE PUBLIC INTEREST.
In 1959 the word "exclusively" was redefined as "primarily" by an IRS bureaucrat. By re-establishing the original word, "exclusively", it would, in effect, disenfranchise almost all superPACS from nonprofit status and return our elections to We The People.It can be done by you,sir.
