As well-heeled candidates with Super PACs overwhelm their rivals, we look for an alternative to money-driven elections and explore ways for candidates and issues to be presented fairly and openly. Joining us is Lawrence Lessig, the director of the Edmond J. Safra Foundation Center for Ethics at Harvard University and a professor of Law at Harvard Law School. Lessig clerked for Justice Antonin Scalia on the United States Supreme Court. He is the author of Republic, Lost: How Money Corrupts Congress and a Plan to Stop It. Moderated by Ian Masters, journalist, author, screenwriter, documentary filmmaker, and radio host.

Hammer Forum is made possible in part by Bronya and Andrew Galef.
