if only we had more comedians going into politics, :)

Sen. Franken was approached by a group of concerned activists (teabaggers) at his
booth in the Minnesota State Fair. The videographer said before this clip was taken, Franken had quickly calmed the crowd
enough to conduct a productive conversation on health care reform.
Franken covers an example using the Mayo Clinic to explain how current
health care costs are widely unequal and unsustainable.
