Thank you, Mr Lessig.

It is urgent that we work on the question you frame for us: "James Madison, the author of the First Amendment, promised us a Congress “dependent on the people alone,” where by the people, he meant, “not the rich more than the poor.” That his words have been read to produce a government plainly “dependent on” the rich more than the poor is not on him. It is the product of a Court unconstrained by the original meaning of his First Amendment. Whether this Court will remain so unconstrained — whether it will continue to impose its values on the Constitution’s text regardless of the meaning the framers gave to that text—is the most urgent constitutional question on the Supreme Court’s docket."

Thank you for remembering Mr Aaron Swartz and reminding us of some of his many contributions.
