senate -- >> guest: this i far from an original point, and it was made most eloquently, i think, by robert putnam, harvard sociologist. he wrote a book called "bowling alone" and it's how we're all just becoming more and more individualistic. we're becoming more and more turned in on ourselves, and hence the title. we're not even -- we don't even belong to bowling leagues, we go bowling alone. that was the title of the book. and i believe that is true here in washington, as well as throughout the country. throughout the country, we're sitting in front of our television sets, we're driving our cars, there is the bigger -- the country, it seems, the less we are into interpersonal relationships, and i believe this is also true in the senate, where you served and where i served, because there was social interaction among members of the senate. we lived here. most of us. our families knew each other. our spouses knew each other. we knew each other's children and in each other's homes, and if you have that kind of interpersonal connection with people, it's really easier to work things out politically,

but because of a single print households and the fatherless problem in america, robert putnam says inis book if we get five back and hope that they can solve america's problems. but my thing is trying to do that and how to do that has been very tough. but the boot camp now has a great success rate and not only getting fathers back into the home, we teach lessons but we also now offer life skills, number one because if i give him a job, if they don't have life skills they won't get their own show. or advocate them a job, they're liable to have some type of tension between their employees and and. so now we teach life skills and we've got the private sector coming alongside of us saying we will hire your guys. for instance, after we get through teaching we hold them accountable. everyday they get a text. everyday somebody contacts of them. everyday they have when they start the morning out with also a phone conference line you can call in monday through friday of 6:30 to 645 time it. we give them those principles. we say to them you have a responsibility to give back to your society. 21
