2:27 Carter has the weirdest hands I have ever seen in my life. I love the man, but those fingers look like sticks.

Jimmy 2012...

[FixedNewsChannel]

@progresIVOMind lol Clinton/Carter 2012. Rolls off the tongue nicely...

[Squeaky1423]

We need to go back to ZERO DOLLARS being used to fund campaigns...

[Louhaw]

Well said!

I really enjoy listening to Jimmy Carter speak, he's always very insightful and interesting to listen to in my opinion.

[xadam2dudex]

campaign donations should be illegal that is the cause of the corruption of the election process where congress sells it's soul for a buck..this is the same thing that happened in the Roman Empire before the fall

Love rachel's 1 on 1 interviews

[moscarielloe]

Rachel is a great reporter ... !!!

[sejembalm]

That IRS $1 presidential campaign contribution actually PAID for presidential elections up to 1976?

Now, candidates have to campaign for two years and raise a BILLION dollars to stand a chance.

I give up.

Vote SkyNet.

Did Rachel say each candidate will spend a billion dollars?!?! LMFAO, you couldn't make that malarkey up! They should save us the time and being forced to hear their drivel. Put that money back into the country!

@SocialDissimulation Transparency would help a lot but I think it needs to go further. We have generations whose votes are based on clever ad campaigns, mud slinging, 30 second sound bites and bumper sticker rhetoric instead of policy. The same organisations that influence the decisions we make in buying laundry powder and fast food influence who we vote for. Along with campaign reform we need to reform the lobby system. Corporations do not look after our interests.

[SocialDissimulation]

@seamoremonster Or at least make it transparent. There is no way you should be able to hide your donations at -any- time.
