YouTube Description
as posted by the channelHelp us cover the political revolution
"Democratic Sen. Kamala Harris (Calif.) said Thursday that she would not refuse money because it comes from corporations.
A questioner at a town hall in Sacramento, Calif., asked Harris to answer specifically whether her campaign would take money from corporations or corporate lobbyists.
"If a corporation or a corporate lobbyist wants to give you money for a campaign, will you tell them, ‘Thanks, but no thanks’?" a man asked.
"Well, it depends," Harris replied. "It depends."
"Wrong answer," the man said.
Harris defended her answer by saying it was just "not the answer you want to hear," and the moderator credited her for her retort.
Other potential Democratic presidential candidates, including Sens. Cory Booker (N.J.), Kirsten Gillibrand (N.Y.) and Elizabeth Warren (Mass.) have pledged not to take corporate dollars. However, Harris has reportedly courted Hillary Clinton’s big donors, and for now she is still open to taking corporate donations.
She said voters can hold her accountable for the money she takes by checking disclosures and determining whether she was unduly influenced."
