secretary clinton being just one of them. and he says the committee plans to call about 20 more witnesses. what's your reaction to that? what more do you think we're going to hear that we have not heard? >> well, that's a great question. because when i signed up to serve on the benghazi committee, i read that eight different reports that were generated by both senate and house intelligence committees, armed services committee, and it became pretty clear to me that there was consensus about what happened that evening. i wasn't really sure what exactly the select committee would find that was in addition to what had already been generated. what i'm finding is after 17 long months, which is, by the way, the longest running select committee investigation, longer than water gate or pearl harbor on the investigation into hurricane katrina, after 17 months there hasn't been any new information about what happened that evening or in the immediate aftermath. >> how about this. because the chairman said yesterday that yours actually is

clinton also holding a rally in nevada. speaking about the importance of the latino vote at one point, and that is something that she will highlight today. she's picking up a key endorsement from julian castro, the hud secretary, the former mayor of san antonio here, and really somebody who's been speculated about as a vice presidential candidate. jose, i know you asked his brother about that yesterday on the show. it's really a nod to the growing importance of the latino vote in this race. clinton outpaces bernie sanders when it comes to support among latinos. she's got better name recognition. and remember, she, in 2008, beat president obama, then-candidate obama, of course, nearly 2-1 when it came to the latino vote. so this is a comfortable base for her. we expect thousands of people out here at the event today. when you look at the bigger picture, though, jose, the conventional wisdom for decades has been that latinos don't vote. while that has been true, even has the population has grown among younger latinos, the mil
