Who funds presidential campaigns and what do they want in return? CIR set out to answer those questions in investigating big donors to the 1992 race between Bill Clinton and George Bush in the PBS “Frontline” documentary, “The Best Campaign Money Can Buy.” Now, 20 years later, producer Stephen Talbot recalls what CIR uncovered and what we can expect from the $2 billion race for the presidency in 2012. Watch the full documentary or check out more of our Behind the Story extras.
