Lawrence Lessig: We the People, and the Republic we must reclaim | Video on TED.com
There is a corruption at the heart of American politics, caused by the dependence of Congressional candidates on funding from the tiniest percentage of citizens. That's the argument at the core of this blistering talk by legal scholar Lawrence Lessig.
This is sure one of the greatest speeches I have listened to on TED.
