Haley Barbour recalls chaotic 1976 RNC Convention and Mississippi’s crucial role in it

Former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour talks with
Mississippi Today’s Bobby Harrison, Geoff Pender and
Taylor Vance about the contentious 1976 Republican
Convention between Gerald Ford and Ronald Reagan. He
recalls how he filibustered the media from eavesdropping
on members of the Mississippi delegation as they argued
by reciting the state’s 82 counties forward and backward.
