Colorado Senator Michael Bennet rose to national prominence in part, due to the 35-day federal government shutdown in January. On the 34th day, the normally mild-mannered Democrat gave a fiery speech that went viral, and rumors about a Bennet 2020 bid began to circulate. Bennet officially announced his candidacy on May 2.
Amy Walter spoke with Senator Bennet to discuss his campaign, his 10-year Senate career, and his vision for the nation.
