All I'm saying is that everyone sort of freaks out when they hear "corporate personhood" but the main goal is really campaign finance reform. That was what the McConnell rule (that was overturned by Citizens United) was attempting to do.

The idea of corporate personhood is not what many people think - by granting "personhood" to a corporation, the government is prevented rom violating the constitution in their treatment of corporations. This is also what allows you as a citizen to sue a corporation for wrong doing.
