I would've liked him to participate in at least one debate to discuss the corruption of money in politics.

Unfortunately, even if they would've allowed him in the first debate, he totally murdered that chance by saying he will quit as soon as he fixes this issue. Even if he really wanted to do that, he would be lucky if he solved that issue in one mandate, making it completely unnecessary to announce before even the first debate that he would quit during his first mandate.

So it seems Lessig isn't a great politician, but I still think he's a great activist for this issue.
