In this discussion, Reed and David Sirota discuss his book 'Master Plan' and the systemic issues surrounding campaign finance in American politics. He delves into the historical context of the Powell memo, the evolution of campaign finance laws, and the role of the judiciary in shaping political engagement.
Sirota emphasizes the need for public financing as a solution to combat corruption and highlights the importance of grassroots movements in driving political change. The discussion also touches on the influence of the conservative movement on the Republican Party and the challenges faced by the Democratic Party in addressing corruption. Ultimately, Sirota calls for a long-term commitment to reforming the political system and acknowledges the urgency of the current situation.
