Special Interest Groups: Why is Darfur a Minority Amongst Reps?

Money truly rules Washington D.C., as many interest groups are represented in our nation's capital, but when it comes to legislation getting passed, representatives do not respond unless your interest groups buys that representative(s) tangible items or favors. But when a serious issue such as the mass annhilation of over a half million people is occuring and special interest groups lobby on behalf of a dire situation like Darfur, nothing happens. Darfur is a minority because without money in Washington, you have no policy changing abilities.
