>> dickerson: we're back with
mick mulvaney the director of
white house office of management
and budget.
mr. director, i want to start
with the individual mandate.
something the president wants,
it's in the bill now, part in
the senate just make the numbers
add up.
if it was taken out would the
president be okay with maybe
cutting that corporate rate to
22% all the way down to 20 to
make up that money that they
need in the senate?
>> no.
i don't think so.
i don't think anybody doubts
where the president is on repeal
or replace.
the white house would love to
see obamacare taken apart all at
once, bit by bit.
however we can do it.
that being said, there's a
couple of things that the
president has been very clear on
from the very beginning.
number one, middle class
ordinary americans working folks
have to pay less and has to be
simpler.
number two, that corporate tax
rate has to be as low as
possible.
virtually wanted it at 15%.
we agreed with house senate
leadership to go to 20%...
