So much of this footage could be made into a great biography ad, spliced up with the military photos that have surfaced recently. If you played it during MLB games, I think it would really have a great impact.

Somebody with the skills, please get on that!

It's a shame that Newt Gingrich didn't play.
Probably "wasn't eligible" anyways.

Something tells me Grinch got picked last a lot as a kid.

Establishment Republicans Even Try to Bury Ron Paul in a Baseball Game!
Posted by Robert Wenzel at 3:22 PM

Here's a clip from the 1983 Congressional baseball game. What's interesting to note is that Ron Paul is buried at number 7 in the batting order, even though the announcers admit he is the best power hitter the Republicans have!

Of course, the Democrats also cut in to Ron Paul's chance to completely shine. In one at bat, they hit him with a pitch, in another the catcher interferes with his swing.

This being Ron Paul, when he is not interfered with he is the star. He went 2 for 3 with 2 RBIs in this game. Dr. Paul is in the Guinness Book of Records for being the only player in the annual Congressional Baseball Game to hit a home run over the fence in a Congressional game.
