amy: can you talk about what is happening at the fec?t it does, what it is supposed to do, and what it is complete now with this gridlock between the three democrats and the three republicans? >> it is a big problem, amy. we were designed to forge bipartisan compromise and there is not a lot of copper mines going on at the fec these days. we have a responsibility to issue, since regulations, to help inform people how to comply with the laws, and to enforce those laws. we are not sing a lot of enforcement or rulemaking going on at the fec. you don't have to take my word for it. lastly, the lawyer for the chamber of commerce, hardly a rabble rousing reform organization what --was complaining the fec was not issuing rules people need in order to comply with the law. most people out there really do want to comply with the law but a understand they have to be rules and they want to know what they are. we have not issued any substantive roles since citizens united interpreting that opinion and that is a big problem for a lot of people who are

fec working to stop rule breakers? a lot of people say was set up to fail because the structure. six commissioners and no more than three of them can be from any one party. so, some people says it is designed for gridlock. i think it is designed for compromise. compromise has been in short supply in recent years. >> here is why the sluggishness should concern can candidates are raising a ton of money. 2016 presidential candidate jeb bush has already raised four times more than every candidate in 2012 combined. ran hisprofessor lessig presidential campaign on this issue. when i talk to him, he had some harsh things to say about our current system. mr. lessing, you often say money is corrupting to government. how so? >> i think the corrupting influence is the influence, as a candidate spends, congress 30% to 70% of your time raising money. >> do super pac's make that worst? >> this model of fundraising increasingly is concentrated in a smaller and smaller number of people. what that does is create a dependence on a tiny slice of th e 1%, which is not in any sense representative of

larry noble who had been general counsel at fec and is an expert on this says it's not correct. >> the allegation by senator sanders? >> the allegation is not correct. that they may be pushing the envelope, but that there really is no underlying corrupt nature to this relationship. i talked to the dnc and they say

why not go directly to the fec? >> because of the deadlock, it's a dysfunctional organization.uld not render a decision on this until way after the campaign is long over and even then, it might be deadlocked. >> to respond to the suggestion that this is just campaign tactics and some folks describe it as a late hit that shouldn't be happening at this point in the game. >> the latest fec report came out from the fund raising committee and had more information. "the washington post" wrote some part of the story three months ago but didn't have the latest fec filings that just came out and that's why we had this additional information. >> no late hit. >> the fec reports came out. i don't have any control over that. >> and is that a disappointment? >> we would like to win everywhere. but we have a path to victory. we have a path to get more pledge delegates in the secretary. it does not require us to win every state and no particular state that has to be a majority of states going forward. there's no must-win. >> you admit you could be further from the goal tomorrow and actually co

of alabama wanted to give more and in 2014, he decided to fight the fec restrictions.hey ended up in the supreme court and the court decided that money is a form of free speech, so the limits were unconstitutional. >> i don't think there should be restrictions on how much people should be able to give because money translates -- it is not speech, per se, but money does translate into speech and regulating money or restricting it or prohibiting the spending of money does affect freedom of speech. >> it also plays an important part in politics. disclosure lets the people know who gives money to candidates or groups that support candidates. >> i can say that disclosure helps me do my job better. we are able to map out the influence that arise from the political system. see who is to forwarding what policies and went and this is valuable in the political sphere and to the public, to have that knowledge. >> on the road to the white house, the candidates should discuss moneys controversial hold in politics and where we need improvement in the system. people disagree on money

former fec chair, former council for the republican national committee, john king is with us as well., doesn't get to the magic number of 1,237, but is almost there, is there any conceivable way he would be denied that republican nomination? >> sure, the delegates are going to slow the and you have to have a majority. you have to have a majority to win the rules fights, you have to have a majority to win the nomination fight. if you don't get to the 1,237, you're going to have vets, you have to get there. there are a enough unbound delegates if he gets close enough he could win them over, but he's trying to win them over to get to a majority. you have to have a majority of the delegates to get the nomination. >> even if he's that close, that close, only a few votes shy, few delegates shy, there could be a contested convention? >> i think you're absolutely right. make mikes an important point. 1,237 is an important number. there are 100 unbound delegates who will decide in cleveland who they're going to support. people forget, in 1976, jared ford won over ronald reagan relying on a poo

pulling in $46 million, according to fec filings.on in total fund raising in hard money to the campaign, according to fec data, as of march 31st, with $182 million. to repeat -- an insurgent candidates, a democratic socialist, a man pale no one put any money on to still be in the race at this point is ahead of hillary clinton, one of the most formidable fund-raisers in the history of modern politics in total fund-raising. that figure does not include super pacs, of course. money and support give sanders a reason to keep fighting. even if he doesn't surpass clinton in pledged delegates his war chest makes it possible to realistically stay in the race until the convention. the democratic primary eight years ago, then-candidate barack obama was ahead in delegates as well as drawing crowds and money. the 2008 campaign, hillary clinton's campaign was in debt by the time she conceded the race to obama. the real reason most campaigns end is they run out of money, or they lose. they can't continue. the question is, what happens if your campa

. ♪ mark: another fec filing deadline has come and gone and another extraordinary result for bernie sandersis campaign. the delegate map has made it very, very difficult for bernie sanders to catch up to hillary clinton. the filings in march show the he ised $46 million last month, hillary clinton raised less. he even outspent clinton in march. 45 $.7 million in march compared to clinton's $28.7 inlion -- $45.7 million march compared to clinton's $28.7 million. john, what do think about that? the first, i guess thing is to think about where we would see someone outspending hillary clinton -- mark: i mean in our careers. year,yes, and in this bernie sanders does not talk to rich people, he doesn't do fundraisers, and yet he has outraised her and he has outraised her in a moment when his chances of getting the nomination has foreclosed, more or less. you cane myth is that only raise money in a serious way and have tens of millions of dollars if you have butlers and fatcats, and bernie sanders has proved that you can raise millions and millions of dollars without butlers and fatcats. sanders o

. >> the fec it doesn't require delegates to disclose individual contributions. so even if a campaign offered gifts or money we would never know, right? >> i really think this is all kind of over rated. what senator cruz did in colorado has nothing to do with offering gifts or, you know, offering to fly somebody on a plane or giving them a coffee cup or what not. it has to do with one thing and one thing only. and that is the cruz campaign understands the rules, worked within the rules and works hard. and wins delegates that way. that is really what this is all about. and the trump campaign simply didn't do that. >> i know i can't get off this topic john but i want to ask one more question about the delegates and the money and contributions. what do you expect will happen? will we see donors offering swag bags to delegates or free plane rides or maybe a great bottle of wine? >> look. this is going to be a total political flree for all. and that is fun to cover. this is going to be an all out street fight for delegates on the way to cleveland. and right now the cr

take a look at the fec. they say money that could go to delegates is not subject to any limit.it on how much money you can give a campaign. there is no limit on how much you can give a delegate. that is in contrast to what is bound for the actual candidates. let me give you an example of what you can't do. a candidate cannot promise, for example, a government job for the purpose of producing support. in fact, you get two years in jail for that kind of thing. to put it real simply, that is a law that governs what the candidate can do with regard to the government. it does not get into what the candidate can do or the delegates can do with anything that's non-governmental. so delegates from 1996 include ronald reagan trying to woo delegates, rides on air force i, all kinds of dinners and meetings and perks. we want to be clear here. we've talked to different campaigns and nobody is suggesting they'll be handing out big bags of cash at the convention. but you asked me about the law. this is an area that has a lot less law and a lot less limits because it doesn't relate to actual e
