Washington Week with The Atlantic

Webcast Extra - April 13, 2012

9m 12s

On the Webcast Extra: Ahead of next week's tax deadline, President Obama campaigns on the Buffett Rule and candidates release their tax returns. Plus, the politics behind the NRA's claim that President Obama has a strong anti-gun record. Also, whether political mini-scandals weigh on the electorate's decision. And, what steps North Korea might take after their failed missile launch?
