I don’t know what kind of situation you walked into, but I’ve seen Alan consistently take large amounts of time to patiently listen to and talk to thousands and thousands of people all across the country. IOW, the person you describe, with the attitude you attribute to him, does not exist.
Shoot, you can talk to him personally tonight, if you want. Just let me know and I’ll give you the call-in number.
He had the chance in the ball room lobby of the Sheraton and this was how the man acted and treated me. Why in the world would I want the chance again to be treated like a sub-human class?
So don’t tell me this person doesn’t exist, I experienced his attitude.
I will give you that I truly believe him to be a great orartor and a very wise/well educated individual, but not someone that I would ever vote for in any elected position.
