Summary:Gary Hart on Friday challenged Iowa caucus-goers to "take back power at the grass roots level" by supporting his candidacy in that state's first-in- the-nation presidential nominating test next month. The Democrat stopped in Chicago en route to Davenport, Ia., for his first foray into the crucial caucus state since re-entering the presidential campaign Dec. 15.
