Claude A Walker laments that running for high political office now requires vast wealth. He notes Kennedy's fundraising costs and estimates for state races, arguing money-dominated campaigns threaten free elections. He recalls Marge Pebworth’s defeat of party machines and urges citizen engagement, ending with homespun patriotism and war nurse reunion imagery.
