Introduction of the Problem in three different Paragraphs
According to the Frontline report, an investigation has made over Montana Anti-Corruption Law that has violated by the Western Tradition Partnership, which has changed American politics by keeping money and politics secret. The video shows boxes full of documents that have found in the Colorado house which started an investigation of the fundraising issues. These documents contain politician’s name that Mark has found in the stolen car. The boxes have given to the "Commissioner of Political Practices" in Montana for further investigation. In which Julie Steve an investigator has told Frontline that Western Tradition Partnership has worked directly with a candidate as an outside source for political campaign fundraising.
However, Bob who has considered as the father of Citizens United told that being protected is important because disclosure laws keep people away from politics. Therefore, it is better to maintain the secrecy of the fundraiser as the citizens don't show their concern about the donors. According to the Professor Erica, tells that Citizens United rules have made a relaxing environment for the ad campaigns through Tax Exemption. Erica has told that 1970s law using Magic Words such as the deficit, elect, vote for and other words has helped in the ad campaign (D. and MacArthur).
The video indicated the ad campaign that has made by Citizens for Strength and Security Funds that has hit hard and negative influence on the audience. The investigation showed the suspicious address of "Citizens for Strength and Security Funds" that turns to a UPS store and ran into a mailbox. Later, it has found that Western Tradition Partnership and the Citizens for Strength and Security Funds are same that maintains donor’s secrecy for the ad campaign.
Further, when it has revealed to the "American Bridge" about the company's suspicious address and identity secret they said, “it is okay to maintain secrecy and non-disclosure of a political ad campaign." American Bridge specializes in opposition research by finding direct mail piece in 30 seconds ad or online ad. Also, the company tracks inconsistency of the candidates by videos in the Montana. Further, its job is to take political history, business dealing and other information of the candidate.
