Up w/Chris Hayes
Bidens role in the Obama administration, filibuster reform and the second term agenda, comparing Obama 2012 to Obama 2008
On Sundays Up w/ Chris Hayes, well talk to a packed line-up of newsmakers, including a governor, several members of Congress and several former Obama administration officials. First, well examine Vice President Joe Bidens outsize role in the Obama administration as hes sworn in for a second term, and consider the ever-expanding portfolio of the vice presidents office. Then well discuss perhaps one of the most consequential decisions of the presidents second term, coming up this week: filibuster reform. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid may be backing away from some of the most far-reaching rules changes embraced by Senate reformers, which may be key to getting any of the presidents legislative priorities through Congress. And finally well compare the presidents vision for his second term to the one he offered when he first took office four years ago.
