Retired nurse Dale Anderson has 12 years with AARP and said, "I don't wanna be connected with AARP."
Many are switching to the American Seniors Association, a group that calls itself the conservative alternative as CBS News Investigative Correspondent Sharyl Attkisson reports.
Last week alone, they added more than 5,000 new members. Our camera was there Friday when the mail came.
Letters were filled with cut-up AARP cards.

" When cattle and women (and seniors) get restless , there is trouble brewing " This must be shaking AARP to it's roots.....lets see, down from 40,000,000 to 39, 940,000 with tens of thousands joining each month. They might have waited till there was a actual bill but I am sure they will be more comfortable in ASA. Context is important.
