He supported his mulatto daughter with honor. Mulatto daughter? Strom? I think I missed something.

Yes, it's pretty clear he fathered a daughter by a black woman. She is now in her 70s. MSN had piece on it recently. There's more than one story about it on the web. Short of a tearful reunion (impossible now) on Oprah, you just have to examine the evidence. I think it's a compelling enough case.
I think it's an interesting story because he did pay her way through college and make sure she got a good start in life on the one hand, even as he fought hard for segregation on the other.
