A Great President and Campaign Finance Reform

Speaking of the role of money in Presidential campaigns today, let's examine a quote from a monumentally great American President:

"I again recommend a law prohibiting all corporations from contributing to the
campaign expenses of any party. Such a bill has already past one House of
Congress. Let individuals contribute as they desire; but let us prohibit in
effective fashion all corporations from making contributions for any political
purpose, directly or indirectly."

It's a simple rule. Could it work?

Or have we all resigned ourselves to a government of the CEOs, by the CEOs, for the CEOs?
