The following is provided free of charge for Supreme Court ASSociate Justices who are a tad clueless about US election laws...

The Tillman Act (1907)

Roosevelt used his Presidential stature to influence public opinion and to persuade Congress. The NPLA and other grassroots organizations also pushed for reform. The result of their efforts was the enactment of the Tillman Act of 1907. The act specifically prohibited direct contributions from corporations and businesses to political parties and election committees. It was the first law on the books to specifically address campaign funding on the federal level.

An ACT doesn't change the Constitution. "Congress shall make no law". Sounds wonderful, doesn't it?

Find me any writings contemporary to the Framers in which inanimate objects were due the same protections as people. Are dog barking ordinances unconstitutional?

The first amendment makes no distinction. Now go find me a writing from the founders where it said some entities don't have free speech. Go find me an exception. Just one.

Speaking of corporations, I was looking for the origins of the concept and found this link to the US Code, TITLE 28 > PART VI > CHAPTER 176 > SUBCHAPTER A > § 3002 on Wikipedia:

(15) “United States” means—

(A) a Federal corporation;

(B) an agency, department, commission, board, or other entity of the United States; or

(C) an instrumentality of the United States.

I found that and posted it to war also. He had some excuse.

I posted a primer which details the several legal uses of the term "corporate" The fact that you either did not read it or did and choose to ignore it isn't me making an excuse. Furthermore, to make the argument that given that statute that the US government is no different from IBM is one that strains credulity.
