Yeah, so the amount Lincoln spent will have to be re-adjusted again, it's not like we'd use a modern conversion for a future comparison. And it end up being that way per capita, but the median will probably end up being a lot lower than that due to huge income inequality.

Maybe mayors have more power than Obama and Clinton in theory, but in practice it's not like the mayor of Flat Rock, Michigan is going to have the same influence as Obama.

Money still can't help you win elections no matter what. All it comes down to is the votes in the end ... 

Actually, If anything mayors have more influence than former presidents or candidates who currently don't hold office since the former are the ones who are currently governing a body of electorates whereas the latter isn't ... 

What is Obama or Clinton going to do if a mayor chooses not to listen to them when their just citizens ? LOL ... 

Yes, maybe in the end, as in election day itself it does not matter, but it's impossible to ignore the months preceeding the election, where almost every candidate either has to end their campaign or participate in an election where they're not even on the ballot in most states.
