Kid Potato

Host Danny Zwerdling talks with Tom McMillen, co-chair of the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports. McMillen says that government has created an elite sports structure in America. He says the result is too much money for superstar athletes and not enough money for the average kid. Studies indicate that obesity is a major problem for children and teenagers in America - and it's getting worse.
