Hypothetical election questions answered....

Alas the US Constitution pre-dates the rise of the corporation and thus provides no guidance. But I think focussing on person-hood is missing the point, the whole problem lies in considering the spending of money as "freedom of speech".

Quite right. Unfortunately, if any attempt is made now to correct the situation the corrupt system will move to preserve itself and block the attempts using whatever means necessary. This is entirely understandable and predictable. The ones now in power are not going to cede that power back to the electorate willingly.
