Question: Which of the following statements regarding regulation of money in campaigns is true? None of the above are correct. Regulating money in campaigns is merely a time, place and manner restriction and therefore is Constitutional. Money and speech are the same thing, and therefore the government cannot place any restrictions on the amount donated or spent in campaigns. Limiting the amount donated by individuals to a candidate prevents the appearance of "quid pro quo" and is Constitutional, but the government cannot regulate the amount of spending. Money and speech are not the same thing, and therefore regulation of campaign finance has nothing to do with free speech.
