Obama staff talks money
Dr. Laura Tyson and former Senator Bill Bradley (D-N.J.) discuss an economic meeting between Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama and economic advisers. Tyson and Bradley say that the financial markets and economic stimuli were discussed along with structural issues like health care, education, and energy independence. Both say that Obama has a clear long term financial strategy separating, they say, Obama from Republican opponent Sen. John McCain. Tyson describes tax cuts advocated by Obama, cuts she says would give 95 percent of middle-income families $1,000. She also discusses the consumer market and the need for a second stimulus package from Congress. (23:48)
