so we're covering technology policy in washington, health care policy in washington, energy policy in washington. 15 different policy verticals where we try to bring that same sense of urgency and that same sense of swarming over the story probably a little less visible. the other thing we've learned, it's been a great surprise. even in this sort of speeded up era of digital news. the long form piece, the magazine piece that might go for 3,000, 4,000, 5,000 words, people will read that. they'll share it, they'll post it on facebook. it'll go viral. if it's good. there's very little appetite for a long thumb sucker. but if the piece is revelatory, it'll go as viral as any kind of sort of piece of daily shouting from the campaign trail. the original work is what gets a voice and gets an audience. host: with that approach, though, what do you do editorially to keep over the reporters who report? how do you keep things in shape that way when it comes to editorial oversight and content? >> well -- guest: well, we try to be a team. the best and most important factor, the editors. when we we

it's not just making washington look dysfunctional. and actual -- it actually hurts the ability for the federal government to be more effective and efficient with tax dollars. look at the department of defense. if you have a continuing resolution instead of an actual d.o.d. appropriations bill signed into law, then they can actually do planning. companies plan years in advance. government agencies should actually be laying out plans as well. about how to best use taxpayer dollars. but if they don't know what their budget's going to look like until literally the day before it's about to take affect, it's real hard for them to do planning and a lot of times what they do is suspend contracts and then they have to start that contract back up again, even though they know that ultimately something's going to get worked out. they can't do long-term planning. and it costs even more money. to do the same thing, so it does lead to a less efficient government, to not have a functioning appropriations process. it's why we want passionately for thi

i talked to the washington post, done various interviews. but i can say all day that muslims unequivocally condemn terrorism, and somebody that is not muslim, i have very little legitimacy, apart from the data. it's important, but not as compelling as the genuine emotional fear and anger that i've seen from talking to mainstream muslim leaders. who i think are understandably concerned that there is a media motif of an angry muslim. you go on fox news and become angry, you only serve to further the stereotype among angry muslims. but there is anger that is anger about attacks on your religion. then there is anger, that is equally genuine, that is towards group like isis or dyess. -- or daesh. there has been a lot of understandable hesitation about whether that's a good idea. i think given what i've shown you today, the opportunity, the time has come for that type of corrective discourse. the majority of americans now have this conspiracy theory in their heads. you can simply throw facts at the problem. some recent research coming out of polit

people look to washington and washington is living in a very different world. on top of all of that is the issue of fairness, the issue of a rigged economy, which essentially means people are working ordinary hours -- working hours for low wages. issue of wealth and power, which dictates what goes on in america. we have town meetings. is thereal feeling should be more economy. -- the general feeling is when they look at wall street what they see is a rigged economy. they see a corrupt campaign finance system. all wrapped up in wall street. what i can tell you from -- thel experience banking committee, which became the financial committee. that on the committee dealt with the regulation of wall street. here is the reality that will not shock any american. billions ofput dollars in lobbying and campaign into saying you have to get rid of these 1930's regulations. you have to allow commercial banks to merge with investor banks, to merge with large insurance companies. i didn't believe it for one second, not for one second. never made any sense to me. website, you

so it will not be a top-down from washington, this is my plan, this is how you'll do it. she's saying, i'm seeing incredible work states are doing and some that aren't doing anything. i'm going to have a program where governors learn from other states, see what's working and we'll match it 80-20 as soon as the program is in place. questioner: i understand but our state is not investing $1 in peer recovery services. so that's really good, but for the person on the ground, for the recovery community organization on the ground, we are receiving no state funds and no federal dollars without a way to access that. i'm not seeing candidates they give the private community a way to help. that's what my question continues to be. as i go through this unaffiliated, undecided process and vet out candidates. i'm still not hearing the answers i need from my peer community. mr. shumlin: what i would say to your peer community is, you're just warming up on this one in new hampshire, as you know. i think it's impressive that the governor and others are pulling together a bipartisan group

that we got it going on in washington, d.c. between government and politicians and media executives isn't working for us anymore. i'm frustrated, fed up. we can solve our problems and heal our wounds but we can't unless we remember who we are. ours was intended to be a citizen government. i am running for the presidency because i think it is time to restore power where it belongs, back in the hands of the citizens of this great nation. i think it is time. we have to take our future back, our politics and government back. i'm running because citizens, people of new hampshire, it is time. we must take our country back.
