Do Democrats believe that money does not influence politics?

Asked by DoNotKnowMuch (2979points) May 11th, 2016

What is the current position of the Democratic party? It seemed at one point in the past, Democrats were in favor of campaign finance reform, against the Citizens United decision, and were generally concerned about the corporate influence of money and lobbying on the future of democracy.

But there seems to have been a change to public rejections of such positions this campaign season (for example, the outright rejection of the transcripts “issue”).

Has there been a shift? Does the average Democratic voter no longer worry about the influence of money in politics?
