Question 2

John T. Moneybags, one of the wealthiest people in America, is a strong supporter of Senator Phineas J. Fogbottom, who is running for president. Mr. Moneybags would like to spend a million dollars helping Senator Fogbottom win office.
 
  Is there any way Mr. Moneybags can spend that much money legally?
  a. No. The law provides that candidates for president may not accept contributions from individuals. Instead, they receive all of their campaign money from the federal government.
  b. No. Although the law allows presidential candidates to accept campaign contributions from individuals, it limits those contributions to amounts far smaller than a million dollars.
  c. Yes. Mr. Moneybags can create a PAC to contribute a million dollars to Senator Fogbottom. Although the law limits individual campaign contributions, it does not limit PAC contributions.
  d. Yes. Mr. Moneybags can spend as much money as he likes helping Senator Fogbottom as long as he acts independently through a 527 committee and his spending is uncoordinated with the Fogbottom campaign.
  e. Yes. He can funnel the money to Senator Fogbottom by giving it to the senator's church.
