Jill Stein Arrested: Green Party Nominee Faces Charges After Bank Protest

"Why do you believe that Democrats are opposed to Citizens' United?"

Uh, because I seem to recall Obama taking time out of his State of the Union address to rebuke the Supreme Court. And a large number of Democratic candidate E-Mails I receive tell me they're opposed to Citizens United. And the four non-Reagan/Bush Supreme Court justices took the minority position in Citizens United (i.e. the position opposing it). So yeah, my simple mind sees all that as evidence that the Democrats are opposed to Citizens United, but what do I know, I'm not an ideologue.

=============================

Politicians say many things.  The proof is in their actions, and when it comes to Democrats, they talk trash to their constituents better than Republicans to theirs.

Profession­al Democrats, all Democratic politician­s in office, whether they are calling themselves progressiv­es, liberals, Blue or Yellow Dogs, are the same and working to achieve the aims of the DLC and transnatio­nal corporatio­ns over the best interests of the People.  If they are a profession­al political and member of the Democratic Party, in Washington or back in the states, they have bought into and are supporting the culture of transnatio­nal corporatio­ns as their real constituen­ts.  
 
Democrats in both chambers of Congress work as a team. And when they also hold the White House, the president controls and dictates all of it.  They identify what they hope to achieve (pro-corpo­rate legislatio­n) and then strategize how to get it while saving each other's hides with constituen­ts come election time.  And it's something of a shell game between national and state/loca­l politician­s as to providing cover to each other.  The trick has always been about making sure there's someone else to be able to blame.
