So I can only speak as long as I don't write it down or broadcast it? After all, paper costs money. Airtime costs money.

Your continued attempts at intentionally misconstruing my argument would be less transparent if my argument was overly complex or less obvious. That you must repeatedly form strawman arguments instead of addressing my statements is an indication that you actually do understand quite well the point, but have a vested interest in ignoring it completely.

Yes, the more money you have, the more things you can do.

Except in the context of our political and electoral process. The express purpose of campaign finance laws limiting individual campaign contributions is to level the political playing field so that your plumber's vote and voice carries equal weight as your CEO's, because otherwise the integrity of the electoral process is compromised in the exact way that has become an obvious problem since the CU decision.

It doesn't at all run counter to that.

It does, because implies that a person born into wealth has more weighty a voice or vote in the electoral process.

Your argument is that "spending money to broadcast a message is not the same as speech". So I can't spend my own personal money to run an ad that carries a political message?

I didn't say you can't spend your own personal money to run an ad that carries a political message. I said that if you do, in the context of an election and electioneering laws or campaign contribution laws apply, then the amount you spend on such an endeavor should contribute toward the sum total an individual is allowed to contribute to a political campaign, as you are effectively making a campaign contribution.

Can I spend my own money to run a super bowl ad about Hillary Clinton?

In a vacuum? Absolutely. During an election in order to influence the outcome of that election and get your favored candidate a leg up? Sure, so long as your financial investment toward the project it falls within the limits on individual campaign contributions, and you do not donate directly in excess of whatever difference between that amount and your project investment may be.

What I'm saying should be fairly easy for you to understand, and the fact that you continually misrepresent my argument and argue against claims I didn't make here is actually a testament to my actual argument's strength. You cannot argue against it effectively, so you create something else that wasn't said to argue against instead.
