“Who in their right mind would run for governor when they’re living under an alias, wanted for a capitol crime?”
OK, he’d already been stripped of his medical license and EVERYONE knew who he was, but that comment couldn’t help but remind me of John Brinkley. This man’s story is out of the park “only in America”. Medical fraud, goat testicles, sex, politics, advertising, and pirate radio.
