Could You Be Mine? Would You Be Mine?

This is a clip of Mr. Rogers in front of Committee in 1969, lobbying for money to keep the show (which he wrote, acted out, and produced by the way) going on PBS. It expresses a passion and clarity of vision that is inspiring and powerful.

By the way VBS.TV (Vice Mag) went beta live today. I found the link to the Mr. Rogers video on it. Recommended by their in-house CD SPIKE JONZE. Check it out when you get a chance.

Did you know that Mr. Rogers was a bad ass in the war? He was the only one to come back from some kind of assault and his fellow soldiers considerded him to be the best and fiercest soldier. Wild wacky stuff if you ask me!
