Well— you can assume anything you like about him....I happen to know him....he’s no “DC insider”— He has been a great supporter of AFP for years....He is a well-off business man..but he does many things that most folks are not aware of...
my first time in a real radio studio(not sure college studio counts) was with him...I met him at the station to give him a thank you basket that I made for him (he helped us give a sit down Thanksgiving Dinner at the World Congress Center in ATL for over 2,000 homeless)— I just wanted to say thanks to him for all his help....I later ended up doing my own show in that same studio— and NO— he did not have anything to do with that....
He has taken my advise a few times, and I have been able to help him a few times...we disagree on a few things...he is a hoot to debate!
He is not a perfect man, but he is a wonderful man...I am proud to know him...you don’t have to take my word for it...but— he is not insider...and they can’t stand the fact that he is NOT playing their game.....
Being an insider playing the game (he’s treated Romney with softer kid gloves than has any other candidate up there) doesn’t mean he hasn’t been charitable and friendly to people like you.
Also doesn’t mean you shouldn’t support him.
