Toronto Mayor Rob Ford and his brother, a city councilor, are launching a YouTube series called "Ford Nation" Ford asks people to "please judge me on my record, not my personal life" in a preview posted Thursday.
Ford last year made international headlines when he admitted to having smoked crack cocaine while in a drunken stupor. He's drawn attention for repeated erratic behavior, but he has resisted pressure to step down and is seeking re-election. (AP)
