This Man Lived Like the Founding Fathers For a Year. This Is What He Learned

How would you feel about reverting to the lifestyle of the late 18th century? Well, that's what author A.J. Jacobs did. He documented his experience in a new book, “The Year of Living Constitutionally: One Man’s Humble Quest to Follow the Constitution’s Original Meaning.” Jacobs joins Hari Sreenivasan to discuss what he learned from his quest.
