&gt; whether people retain their rights when they coordinate as a corporation.<p>You are incorrect. Citizens United was decided based on the notion of corporate personhood -- the notion that corporations <i>themselves</i> have rights as if they are a person. There are very succinct and upheld limitations on individual monetary contribution to campaigns.<p>However CU broke that by giving people the ability to launder political money through a corporation.<p>Also, most non-profits (those 501c3s that want tax exemption) can not do any sort of campaigning. Those that do are subject to taxes.<p>CU said specifically that corporations are people that can &quot;say&quot; (aka spend) whatever they want to get their message across. People can make individual donations to support this effort essentially getting around existing campaign restrictions.<p>Money does not equal speech and there was a good reason monetary donations were restricted. By removing the restrictions they have reduced the ability of the average person to be heard because they now have to buy a bigger megaphone than the billionaires.<p>You really do need to read up on corporate personhood and election law. Let me guess... FOX News fan?
