“But today, thanks to an enlightened supreme court, corporations now have all the rights the founding fathers meant for us.”

To continue, Murray Hill says he/it develops “plans and messages that build on your strengths and connects with your target audience. Our work ranges from planning and research, message creation, coalition building and organization development.

And, “Reaching your audience is a skill in its own. Your story has to be told to the public, the media and opinion leaders. This means paid advertisements, grassroots campaigning, earned media and government outreach.

And, “It’s not only the words, but the images that make outreach efforts a success. Print ads and collateral materials. Videos. Radio and television ads. Internet and new media. Murray Hill creates effective and cost efficient designs to catch and hold your audience’s attention.”

Just think how more effectively it/he could be if it/he was a CONGRESSTHINGIE.

“Supreme Court Ruling Spurs Corporation Run for Congress,” is the headline for a Murray Hill post, with “First Test of ‘Corporate Personhood’ In Politics” as the subhead.

Following the recent Supreme Court ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission to allow unlimited corporate funding of federal campaigns, Murray Hill Inc. today announced it was filing to run for U.S. Congress and released its first campaign video on www.youtube.com/user/murrayhillcongress

“Until now,” Murray Hill Inc. said in a statement, “corporate interests had to rely on campaign contributions and influence peddling to achieve their goals in Washington. But thanks to an enlightened Supreme Court, now we can eliminate the middle-man and run for office ourselves.”

Murray Hill Inc. is believed to be the first “corporate person” to exercise its constitutional right to run for office. As Supreme Court observer Lyle Denniston wrote in his SCOTUSblog, “If anything, the decision in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission conferred new dignity on corporate “persons,” treating them — under the First Amendment free-speech clause — as the equal of human beings.”

Murray Hill Inc. agrees. “The strength of America,” Murray Hill Inc. says, “is in the boardrooms, country clubs and Lear jets of America’s great corporations. We’re saying to Wal-Mart, AIG and Pfizer, if not you, who? If not now, when?”

Murray Hill Inc. plans on spending “top dollar” to protect its investment. “It’s our democracy,” Murray Hill Inc. says, “We bought it, we paid for it, and we’re going to keep it.”

Murray Hill Inc., a diversifying corporation in the Washington, D.C. area, has long held an interest in politics and sees corporate candidacy as an emerging new market.

The campaign’s designated human, Eric Hensal, will help the corporation conform to antiquated “human only” procedures and sign the necessary voter registration and candidacy paperwork. Hensal is excited by this new opportunity. “We want to get in on the ground floor of the democracy market before the whole store is bought by China.”

Murray Hill Inc. plans on filing to run in the Republican primary in Maryland’s 8th Congressional District. Campaign Manager William Klein promises an aggressive, historic campaign that “puts people second” or even third.

“The business of America is business, as we all know,” Klein says. “But now, it’s the business of democracy too.” Klein plans to use automated robo-calls, “Astroturf” lobbying and computer-generated avatars to get out the vote.
