Campaign Reformation Movement ...

The Campaign Reformation Movement started November 1st, 2011 by several individuals from South Detroit. Given the poor conditions of the surrounding communities and the protests during Occupy Detroit, they formed with the goal to help the nation's economy by focusing on spending- most importantly, private financing campaigns. They haven't given any opinion on social issues, they seem strictly focused on economic issues- Listing Dwight D. Eisenhower as influence for strength and "knowing what needs to be done". So far, they've only held one conference at Henry Ford Community College with a telecommunications class on the relations between media, campaigning, and costs. Though a tiny group, they've been drastically gaining more supporters from the Occupy Detroit movement with each day.
Political Ideology
[edit]- Introduce Bills that would have stricter campaign fund raising standards, with complete transparency and set limits
- Create a bill authorizing partial public financing
- A mandatory limit on spending
- Abolish the Supreme Court ruling on corporations being able to finance elections
- Reinstatement of the Fairness Doctrine
- All politicians would be under oath upon taking office and the Misfeasance would be have harsher system of punishment
- Voting with Dollars
- Matching Funds
- Clean Elections
- Use of Soft Money
Controversy
[edit]There's a majority that doubt the Campaign Reformation Movement Party's actuality- Claiming they are a hoax and irrelevant to modern politics on the basis of the C.R.M.'s small size and recent birth.
