Rights are pretty useless things if you cannot afford to exercise them, or even if you try, you can be consistently outgunned. Most citizens do not have the time to personally go lobby, they got rent to pay, while a minority can pay teams of professionals in $1000 suits, to go and lobby on their behalf, whilst they are asleep on a nice beach somewhere. I, in no way want to ban citizens from lobbying. I just think that perhaps 'lobbying' could do with a narrower definition and 'criminal interference in the electoral process', a wider one.
