A corporation is not a person

Senator Bernie Sanders gives an impassioned speech about the horrible Citizens United case and his proposal to overturn that ruling. I think the definition of "person" in general as it applies to a "natural person", i.e. human being, likely needs some legal revision more so than merely declassifying a corporation as one, however I agree with his point in general. A corporation should not be protected under the constitution with the same rights as a living, breathing human being.
