Meet The PressJPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon joins us for an exclusive interview after his company announced a market-shaking $2 billion trading loss. What went wrong? Should there have been more oversight from the government? How much blame should land on the CEO's shoulders? If this can happen to JPMorgan, are there other big banks at risk?
Senator Carl Levin co-author of a government regulation intended to prevent big banks from taking such huge risks, joins us exclusively to respond to Jamie Dimon and make his case for why more government oversight could have prevented JPMorgan Chases loss. Plus, the co-anchor of CNBCs Squawk Box, Andrew Ross Sorkin joins us to help to break it all down.
The head of the Republican party, Reince Priebus, joins us for an overview of the campaign and a preview of the battle ahead: the strategy, the issues, and how his candidate plans to get voters mobilized and excited for the race.
Comments by Vice President Biden on Meet the Press last Sunday catapulted same-sex marriage into the spotlight, forcing President Obama to publicly support the issue. Will it become a campaign issue, energizing voters on both sides in the fall? How will it affect the presidents standing with independent voters in battleground states? Our roundtable weighs in: Lt. Governor of California Gavin Newsom; Chairman of the American Conservative Union Al Cardenas; Washington Post columnists Kathleen Parker and Jonathan Capehart; and MSNBCs Chris Matthews
ABC This Week
Sunday on "This Week with George Stephanopoulos," Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., and Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., debate President Obama's historic shift in support of same-sex marriage.
After President Obama became the first U.S. president to back gay marriage in an exclusive ABC News interview this week, what happens next in the battle over same-sex marriage? Has public opinion changed or will state-level opposition block same-sex marriage from spreading across the country? Will the issue head to the Supreme Court next? And how will President Obama's shift impact the 2012 presidential race?
Plus, our powerhouse roundtable debates all the week's politics, with Republican strategist Mary Matalin, former New York governor and host of Current TV's "Viewpoint" Eliot Spitzer, Faith and Freedom Coalition founder and chairman Ralph Reed Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen, and Politico senior political reporter Maggie Haberman
As the general election heats up, what's the road to the nomination in battleground states for President Obama and for Mitt Romney? Will a bullying incident from high school hurt Mitt Romney's campaign? And what does Indiana Sen. Richard Lugar's primary loss mean for the battle for the Senate in 2012?
CBS Face The Nation
Gov. Deval Patrick, Ted Olson, Tony Perkins, Clay Aiken, Evan Wolfson, Mark McKinnon
Sunday on "Face the Nation," Bob will look at all sides of the same-sex marriage debate with Ted Olson, the conservative lawyer who became somewhat of a rockstar during his defense of President George W. Bush in Bush v. Gore, then shocked a lot of people by leading the charge to overturn California's Proposition 8 and establish a constitutional right for same-sex marriage. Gov. Deval Patrick, will join him, he's a top supporter of President Obama's. Same-sex marriage has been legal in Patrick's state since 2004.
Then Bob will talk to Ralph Reed, the former head of the Christian Coalition. Singer Clay Aiken of American Idol fame will join them. Aiken's an openly gay father who was born and raised in North Carolina, which passed Amendment One on Tuesday, a law that says the only legal union is marriage between one man and one woman - effectively saying civil unions, even between men and women, aren't recognized by the state. Evan Wolfson, the founder and president of Freedom to Marry, and 'b]Mark McKinnon, who is a Newsweek Contributor, will also join us.
Bob will switch focus to this terrorist plot to bomb a U.S.-bound plane using what appears to be an updated version of the underwear bomb used in the attempted Christmas Day bombing in 2009. House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Mike Rogers, will give us the latest on that.
Finally, Norah O' Donnell joins Bob on a special Mother's Day panel. We'll look at the women's vote along with Obama surrogate and Democratic strategist Anita Dunn, Romney surrogate and Republican commentator Bay Buchanan and Melinda Henneberger who writes the column "She The People" for the Washington Post.

A dead heat between President Obama and Governor Romney as they go back and forth over jobs and the economy. And President Obama puts Congress on the spot with a lengthy to-do list, so is he using the Senate floor to road-test his fall campaign strategy?

Well also look at the Presidents evolution on gay marriage and how it will play in the battleground states. Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper is pushing for Civil Unions in his state. Hell join us with the details.

I know he's been interviewed off camera by ABC News. Does he object to putting his face on TV to give us a more dramatic human account about Romney? If not, I would have thought that someone would want to get him to tell the story to the American public in his own words.
