...the man's been my nemesis since the days he was a thorn in Jesse Jackson's side trying to argue against the Democratic party's changes to their primaries to accomodate the future presidential candidate. I NEVER failed to confront him in the WaPo in those days with at least a half dozen of my published letters addressed to his editorials.

I listen to almost everything to inform myself. You should take heed. That's why I bothered to post this here...to inform.

Came to post this on this thread after my wife alerted me to the Will video and asked me if it was legit. That's the point of my post. Not whatever you think is my failing.

I was foolish enough to think it would be a welcome observation and addition to this post about AI fakes. My bad.
