in 1984 jessie jackson amassed a huge number of delegates, but he only got 40% of the delegates he waso he negotiated with the party rules that included the current proportionality. he went to the party and said i can't win 20% of the votes and get 9% of the delegates. he made an act that to this day has changed the way the democratic party operates. >> that change heavily democratic districts wouldn't be penalized for having democrats concentrated in a small area, they would get more representation. when you win a city you don't get penalized for it. >> if they operated the way the republicans do hillary would be way ahead. getting rid of super delegates, something like that. it's going to be tough because i think the clinton's campaign position has hardened somewhat because of the negativity over the last several weeks, but that would be something they would want to look at. if you change these rules, it would hurt the next campaign. those rules helped bernie sanders. >> you want a campaign that pushes -- he's going to want a your hair is still thinning. you may have inactive follicl

i talked yesterday to reverend jessie jackson about what he did in 1988 as he headed toward the democratic national convention that year with a large number of delegates with a passionate movement supporting him and what he described was at times difficult meetings and at times real back and forth about platform debates about rules changes and vice presidential choices, but at the end of the day i think that the signals that you've gotten both from hillary clinton and bernie sanders is they both seem to recognize that taking on a donald trump now the likely republican nominee is going to require them both to have some communication and ultimately some connection. so i think that's likely to happen, but too many people in political and media they keep looking for a quick easy solution and sometimes this takes time. >> there's not going a quick easy one. thanks for joining us tonight. >>> still to come sometimes the best way to interpret a donald trump speech is to watch the reactions of those behind him. last night did not disappoint. don't go anywhere. >>> ever since he gave his endorsemen

i'm remembering back to when jesse jackson ran in 1988, he won a bunch of states, could not win the nomination, there was a famous cover of "time" magazine what does jessie want. do we have a sense if sanders falls short in this thing but comes in there with winning 20 states, winning 1,800 delegates what does he want to do with that? >> i've asked him that question directly a number of times, he gets quite irritated when you put that question to him because it includes the assumption that he's not going to win the nomination. we've heard a little bit of discussion about what those might be, whether it's planks in the platform, whether it's changing the super delegate structure of how nominees are selected however that's evolved because suddenly his advisors are talking about using super delegates to help him win the nomination. there's been back and forth there. i think campaign finance reform is something that's really central to bernie sanders, i think you can simply listen to his stump speech to get a sense of what the issues are that he thinks are going to be really, really important. my question is a little bit different going into the convention w
