Are you going back to Community Organizing . Well, you know, probably im a little too grayhaired and old to be going door to door like i used to be. Plus secret Service Still follows me around, so im pretty disruptive. But i am going back to what inspired me to get into public life. One of the things that inspired former president barack obama these days are meetings like this one. Hey, people. Hey, hey. Its called a bam circle. Bam stands for becoming a man. A program that started in chicago in 2001 to mentor and support boys and young men. How is everybody doin .
