I posted this link on another thread, then decided this hilarious video deserved a thread of its own. Seems NOTHING has changed in almost 20 years. Great stuff.

LOL You're no better at posting HTML links than I am. Hysterical video, though. :-)

I saw Pat Paulsen at the Steel Pier in Atlantic City in the Early 1970's. I can still remember some of the show. He had his acoustic guitar and did a bit of business spinning the guitar and hitting himself in the head.


I guess you had to be there.

You notice he didn't actual say he was running for president. That's because:

"In 1972, NBC aired a Doris Day movie in which comedian Pat Paulsen appeared for 30 seconds. Because Paulsen had launched a satiric presidential campaign, he was ruled a legitimate candidate. Two Republican candidates requested and got 30 seconds in the same time slot as a result." (snip)
