Barry Goldwater in Southern VictoryEdit

Barry Goldwater was a Democratic Congressman representing New Mexico in the 1930s and 40s. In 1940, he was ejected from the floor of the United States House of Representatives for becoming involved in a heated exchange with Congressman Nephi Pratt of Utah. Goldwater scuffled with the men who removed him, even landing a good blow on one. Pratt, in contrast, simply left the room with dignity.^[1]
