A Clever PR Campaign
If you've been paying attention to the news about the recent Supreme Court ruling on Citizens United vs. Federal Election Commission, you know how controversial this decision is. While I am not endorsing the Supreme Court ruling, I have to admit, when learning that PR Firm Murray Hill Inc. decided to run for Congress, inspired by the SOTUS decision, I took interest. Murray Hill, a Maryland based company is using the position of "Corporate Person" to establish the firm as a "corporate candidate".
Politics aside, this is a clever use of PR power, and is one of the most creative campaigns I've seen in a while. But the thing is, they are serious, and have begun filing paperwork to run for Congress. Here is the Murray Hill press release Supreme Court Ruling Spurs Corporation Run For Congress: First Test of Corporate Personhood in Politics , and their campaign video is below.
