Campaign contributions are BRIBES. The Supreme Court essentially legalized all forms of political bribery with "Citizens United" decision.

I would BAN, by constitutional amendment, ALL campaign contributions and limit spending to $100,000 for President, $50,000 for all other offices, with the entire amount to be paid for by the candidate herself/himself. No exceptions.
I would also limit terms to 4 years for any office, elected or appointed, including Senate which would need to be reduced, and also Federal Court to 4 years. We must eliminate "Professional Politician" from possible career choices.
That will put a lid on the matter for good.
