Corporations are people in the sense that they have a vested interest in the direction the country goes. They have a right to donate money to political campaigns, etc. because they have an interest in the outcome.

Corporations are not autonomous like humans are. Therefore they need a management team to act as their "brain". Also, the profits generated have to go to a human since corporations themselves can't really spend/save/invest money - people use money. When a corporation is sold, it is essentially swapping brains from the buyer to the seller and the seller is assigning the right to be paid to the buyer.
