3:08Now PlayingHarvard Professor Larry Lessig is running for president with one objective: to root out the corruption that pervades every nearly every aspect of the American political system. He’s raised more money than many other candidates and has met polling benchmarks, yet the Democratic National Committee refuses to #LetLessigDebate.
In this edited portion of an hour-long interview with The Young Turks’ Cenk Uygur, Lessig explains the Catch-22 the DNC is using to keep him off the debate stage and how DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz is not telling the truth about why he’s been excluded from the conversation.
