Description

In John F. Kennedy’s Presidential Campaign, there were many concerns over the high costs of running for president.

Former Senator Russell Feingold, a chief architect of bipartisan campaign finance reform, discusses how our elections got to this point and how America can still untangle the mess of financing political campaigns.
