No, it's not. It is, legally, a single person. It is not a group of people, though one or more other people (all or some of which may also be corporations, governments, or other legal persons that are not natural persons) have authority to direct it as laid out in its charter. But the corporation is not, and is clearly and legally distinct from, any and all those people, individually or in any combination.

What I am saying is, that a corporation does not have a mouth. Only people have mouths.
Therefore any time you a preventing an entity with a mouth from speaking, you are by definition preventing a person from speaking.
A corporation, is, by definition, a group of people, yes. And those people who make up the group have rights that are protected by the constitution.
Or in other words, a corporation is the plural form of the word 'person', in many situations.
