Yes, you are making my point for me. People who say things like "we just have to over turn citizens united" are either ignorant of the magnitude of the task they're invoking, or simply echoing a sentiment they heard else where and moving on.

We're going to have the current supreme court for a good 30 years going forward (baring every one of them walking in front of a bus). That's 30 more years of iron clad support for citizens united. Since citizens united, the entire landscape of politics has changed. Both parties receive unfathomable amounts of money every year, and these are the people who ultimately select the members of the supreme court.

So how exactly does one "over turn" citizens united, when the entire political system is built around citizens united? How do you "get money out of politics" when it is the engine that drives politics?

Damn, it's a good thing the people on the supreme court weren't appointed by members of either party, all of which are incentivized to appoint people who will preserve Citizens United.
