John Edwards has an ambitious plan to cut poverty in half. Will it work?
Even though he's no longer running for president, John Edwards is

enough momentum to make a difference? NOW's David Brancaccio talks
with Edwards about how he plans to achieve this ambitious goal and
what role it may and should have on the upcoming presidential
election. Will the issue of poverty in America finally be addressed
with more than just lip service?
