That is great! Thanks for sharing.

AARP is the American Association of Retired Persons. Very active lobbying organization which invites every American to join at the age of 55. It has lots of money and offers health insurance, life insurance and many other benefits to anyone over 55. It has more political clout than just about any other organization in USA.
