There is meat on that bone and good people need to seize upon it. Once that battle is won, there needs to be a second step. Public financing of candidates. Full stop. Done.
Clinton stated an intent to propose a constitution amendment to correct Citizen's United in her first 100 days. One doesn't have to be president to propose constitutional amendments. The people are quite obviously ticked off at corrupt establishment politicians. If one can learn anything from this election, it is that. Might it be time for such an amendment to be pushed? Would it be hard to convince the voting public both urban and rural to vote any politician who gets in the way of the amendment out of power?
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
