I posted this on GD and it appears no one took notice.
So I want to give the link here if any of you guys are interested. It's Gravel telling the story of how he was able to get the Pentagon Papers into the public record. It's educational (it was to me, anyway) about what goes into filibustering, and how close we came to not learning about the situation.

It's 17 minutes long, so give yourself some time if you choose to watch.

Gravel relays it in such an entertaining way -- I was laughing through it all.

His actions and courage are impressive -- we need more like him.

1. I was going to kick it, but I couldn't find it.
One thing I have noticed is that GD is alot busier than GD-P,
and threads get pushed down quicker.

There are a handful of Gravel supporters here - I'm sure they will enjoy it.

I will watch it later.... after Biden is done :P
