If both political parties in the US are bought out by the same plutocrats, how do we return America to a Democracy?

Sure, we all still get to vote. But this video from Bill Moyers warns that we are living now in a plutocracy, and that’s incompatible with true democracy.
We can select person R or D to represent us. Rarely, we may even have the hope of selecting a person I as in Independent Senator Bernie Sanders. But if the same fellows are signing the checks that keep each of the D, R, and I politicians in office; is it really democracy? Bill Moyers says no, and I tend to agree. How do we get back to the America the Founding Fathers fought and died to give us? How do we return to the ideas Thomas Paine expressed in Common Sense?
