It appears that Barack Obama has showed his hand relative to what the 1st Amendment would be like in his presidential regime.
As reported by Hot Air, Missouri governor goes nuclear on Obama for using prosecutors on campaign “truth squad” with lawsuits being threatened over "misleading" ads - in their judgment.

This abuse of the law for intimidation insults the most sacred principles and ideals of Jefferson. I can think of nothing more offensive to Jefferson’s thinking than using the power of the state to deprive Americans of their civil rights. The only conceivable purpose of Messrs. McCulloch, Obama and the others is to frighten people away from expressing themselves, to chill free and open debate, to suppress support and donations to conservative organizations targeted by this anti-civil rights, to strangle criticism of Mr. Obama, to suppress ads about his support of higher taxes, and to choke out criticism on television, radio, the Internet, blogs, e-mail and daily conversation about the election.
