“We’ve got to team up and see if we can bring about some positive change in the inner cities. That’s my only agenda. He agreed and he wants to do something,” Mr. Harvey told reporters in the lobby after the meeting. “They have a plan for the inner cities but they need some help and so that’s why they called me. So we’ll see what I can do.”
