Description
Few understand the ways money moves in and out of our political system better than campaign finance reform advocate Trevor Potter. A former chairman of the Federal Election Commission and founding president of the Campaign Legal Center, Potter was Stephen Colbert's chief adviser when Colbert formed his own super PAC and 501(c)(4) in a clever effort to expose the potential for chicanery behind each. In this edition of Moyers & Company, Bill and Potter discuss how American elections are bought and sold, who covers the cost, and how the rest of us pay the price. Also included is an essay on the bags of money that campaigns drop on consultants and TV ads to affect and distort your point of view.
