Her a lot of momentum. if they beat expectations in iowa to get an influx of cash. it is unique also and unique in its rules which makes it tricky, you have to caucus for a candidate which means you have to spend several hours in a public forum declaring your support for a candidate. if that candidate does not make the 15% threshold then you get to do it again. maybe it is someone you want to do better then your first choices biggest competition. then third you know eiowa is no representatives o...

List of just 40 or not a hundred? how do you whit it wied when i down to say this person meets the threshold i want in the book? >> its art and science. you come up with the icons from the civil rights movement like congressman john lewis, harry belafonte. but then there are younger people. to look at the spectrum of both across the generations, but then also people from very different walks of life as well as different political point of view. and i thought that was important because it really ...

Delivery because humans are involved? >> yeah, its a good question. we all love the convenience. who doesnt like getting the thing they want the same or next day. but some of the things we order, we didnt necessarily need the next day and yet theres no disincentive for not. >> correct. >> exactly. >> there used to be. you used to pay up for it. >> but we dont anymore. amazon recently i believe sort of removed the minimum cost threshold to get that free delivery so now you can order a 35 cent ite...

Blocking is not quite accurate at this point. >> which is a fair point. and to the point about the idea that mitch mcconnell does not have unilateral decisionmaking power. chuck schumer knows that. heres what he had to say in new york. watch. >> we at the very minimum will require votes from all the senators on each of the witnesses and about each of these sets of documents. and i dont think my colleagues, democrat or republican, are going to want to vote to withhold evidence in such an importan...

Meet that threshold for the next debate? >> oh, yeah. we already cleared the donor threshhold by a very wide margin and got a qualifying poll. were confident that ill be right there on the stage in iowa in a little bit less than a month. >> all right. lets talk about the debates themselves and youve talked about how you dont get as much time to speak at some of these debates. i think we have a graphic that shows where you are as compared to some of the other candidates. you were down at the bott...

Resources are flowing to people who have been household names, in some cases for decades. im thrilled to be breaking new ground. we raised $10 million in the last quarter in increments of only $30 each. no corporate pact money. this is a grassroots, people-powered campaign and thats the way you have to finance campaigns to succeed in 2019 and 2020. >> so do you think then that because it seems as though the deck is stacked against these minority candidates for the reasons that you described, tha...

Lancaster university. he joins me to talk about these developments from bedford, england. hello there, richard. good morning to you. first up, so new information this weekend that a top administration official said stop the aid 90 minutes after president trumps phone call with the ukrainian president and said keep it hush-hush. does this put renewed pressure on the republicans in the senate to present witnesses in order to present this new information? and if they dont, how will that look? >> we...

Can not only beat donald trump and provide the kind of wave we need to send mitch mcconnell to the back benches. >> so how do you get back on that debate stage to make sure your voice is represented especially considering the dnc just raised the threshold again, you may be off the campaign trail soon for an impeachment trial in the senate. >> weve seen our poll numbers already pop up. weve now had three polls weve gone from 3% to 4%. that means were 1% shy of making their threshold. we know some...

They jump around a lot. a lot of people dont make up their mind until the very last minute. i think the race is very fluid. if youre someone like joe biden, its also very scary. >> you said people make up their mind at the last second. thats the argument cory booker is making because hes registering high in the polls. he says this happened in the past. voters dont decide until the end and the way the system is set up is not fair. >> anybody who has campaigned in places like iowa sees how strong ...
