Corruption in Politics, with author Brian Klaas

Political scientist, and professor at University College London, Brian Klaas, talks to us about his new book, "Corruptible" -- a look at what causes human beings, from political leaders to your local condo board -- to be corrupt, and how do we create new systems in which such corruption no longer thrives. A good deal of our discussion focuses on the American experience, and what we can do to avoid a further spiral into increasingly more corrupt, and extremely, government in Washington.
