It's a good ruling.


--- Quote ---Citizens United, a conservative 501(c)(4) nonprofit that has funded a dozen political documentaries over the years, produced a critical documentary about Hillary Clinton in 2008 entitled "Hillary: The Movie." By a decision of the federal government, which was enforcing the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act (known more broadly as McCain-Feingold), this piece of political speech was banned from television.

Let's boil it down to the essential words: Political documentary, banned, government.

Read that article.  Might change some of your minds.  Don't forget that this ruling was essentially about he government banning speech.  It does not matter who expresses the speech, a person or corporation.  The first amendment protects speech... period.

And even if a corporation could vote, which they can't, they would still only get a single vote.
