Although the women of the United States are confined within the narrow circle of domestic life, and their situation is, in some respects, one of extreme dependence, I have nowhere seen woman occupying a loftier position; and if I were asked... in which I have spoken of so many important things done by Americans, to what the singular prosperity and growing strength of that people ought mainly to be attributed, I should reply, To the superiority of their women.

Dem vs. Repub 1983 Ball Game - Starring Ron Paul

with some commentary by Barney Frank, I think. Bizarre and yet entertaining for this Sunday. From back in the days when people actually followed baseball, before the Strike and all that.

Some shaky video around 6 min.


h/t The Daily Paul - Your Source for all things Paul

What's hilarious is that the Republicans put Ron Paul way down in the lineup to begin with to the bemusement of the commentators. Even playing a game, the guy can't get a break.
