By most accounts, it began when he first worked as an advocate for the poor, and then a civil rights attorney in Chicago. He came to believe he could do more good for people if he were in politics, since those were the people who made the decisions that so often affected the lives of the poor. He decided to run for state senator, and once he got elected, he continued on in politics.
