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

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.
