This young lady, who worked as part of the catering staff the Gallup sponsored inagural HOPE 100-City Book Tour event for "How The Poor Can Save Capitalism," in Washington, D.C., was the most important book I signed last Thursday evening.

After finishing her work, she quietly walked over to the Barnes & Noble booksellers table and purchased her own copy of the book. Because it was against the rules of employment, she asked the representative to get her book signed.

Well, I tracked her down, because I wanted to meet her in person.  She is our future.  She is, what this book is about.

Let's go.
