Bingo. Though it will never happen, I'd be curious to see what politics would be like if candidates were all given a flat sum of money and the question was not how much money they can get for their campaign, but how intelligently can they spend what they have?

It'll never happen, but it'd make for an interesting exercise in thought I think.
