frederick at ebenezer baptist church in chicago, illinois, where i was raised up at. and i, when i got to be, i think, about 12 or 13 years old, my sister bought me a guitar because i had heard john lee hooker playing. and i made the statement, "if that cat can play, i know i can learn." [laughter] and actually, i was being real self-centered to myself then, like, kind of making fun of him. but today john lee hooker is a monument. i mean, he is bigger than big, you know. with the way he was doing, he had a style that was his. there was no copying. he's got people running around trying to figure out, "what are you doing? how do you do that," you know. so i decided to try to play like muddy waters, elmore james, and all these different blues people. i tried to learn this when my mother went to the a&p. [laughter] you understand? see, 'cause she didn't deal with the guitar. she didn't like it. she loved that violin, but that guitar was just not the right thing to have in her house. you understand? and she told me many time, "don't bring that in here, boy." and like, she

frederick douglass used to say something and that i concur with what he says -- in this world, he do when they defeated know anything else, that is you may not get everything that you pay for, but you most certainly will pay for everything that you get. pushing moratorium's -- not opposed to pushing them and i do push them and we have pushed them, but the reality is if you are in the house, you have to get 217 other people to agree with you. in the senate, in some instances, you have to get at least 50 people to agree with you. in some instances, you have to get 59. so i'm not all that optimistic. one of the things i've learned in this business if i don't know anything else about it is that change is not easy to come about. good ideas were great ideas, you have to get enough support from the people in order to make it happen. you don't only have to get support in illinois, you have to get support in south dakota and in wyoming and in mississippi and in texas and in all over the place. but i do believe people should continue to advocate for what they believe in. then, if you don't get
