เอลวิส = Elvis, right? How about Presley? Does he have a real Thai name and not just a phonetic spelling?

UDD Article 19 - "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media regardless of frontiers". Does this apply over and above the Thai government's claim of the necessity for political censorship? Is any relief possible? And if so what venue?

I have been confused a bit by this article which was sent to me by a “libertarian”: Napolitano says “Alito was right”

I am having a bit of trouble sorting this out. As far as I can tell, the ruling means that any entity – corporation or labor union or group of whoever – can not directly contribute to a political campaign, but can set up a separate satellite ‘campaign’ that orbits outside the existing candidate and buys advertising to support that candidate. Am I reading this correctly?

Furthermore, the Napolitano article states that

“…the president attacked this decision by arguing that the ruling permits foreign nationals and foreign corporations to spend money on American campaigns. ”

Which would technically be correct if the satellite campaign idea is correct.

However the article goes on to say:

” The Supreme Court opinion, which is 183 pages in length, specifically excludes foreign nationals and foreign-owned corporations from its ruling.”

And this would mean that foreigners and foreign-owned corporations can not participate in any satellite campaign organization. Is that correct?

Finally, what constitutes a foreign-owned corporation? Does that mean 100% foreign owned? Or just partially foreign owned – like say News Corp. which is 5.7% owned by Prince Alwaleed bin Talal of Saudi Arabia?

What is the real amount of capital that banks must keep on hand before they can start fractional reserve lending ???
