Joe Costello began his career in politics as a volunteer for Ted Kennedy's primary challenge to President Jimmy Carter in 1980. Since then, Costello worked for a series of candidates who sought to change the system, like Jerry Brown in 1992 and Howard Dean in 2004. He talks with Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks about his experiences and about how money became a corrupting influence on politics over the past 30 years, destroying Tip O'Neill's truism "all politics is local". |
