I agree with your post in questioning everything. Essential to move forward.
So in that vein I write the following...

The man was charismatic, and a natural born leader. Agreed.

He also refuted the constitution - because it was written by slave owners, (not a very clever position, . But to put him in the presence of such people as Jefferson is a insult to the founding fathers).

He was also a proponent of affirmative action, and reparations, early in his political life. ( A completely illogical position).
While denouncing communism publicly, his closet advisors were communists (Stanley Levison), and he attended communist indoctrinated seminars. (highland folk school)
He was also an advocate of globalism.

Charismatic, yes. A leader, yes. ...but so was hitler, lenin, Mao and stalin....

I'm just sayin'. Facts are facts.... don't scratch..
