He tried to undo the damage that his campaign had created, even though it was unpopular with his crowd.

it's a wonderful speech - he should have talked more like that
throughout the campaign, instead of using the politics of hate, fear and division.... :(

5. very gracious
Good luck to John.

Some of the people in the crowd, on the other hand, were dickheads. Was there a single non-white person there?

It was all calculated to redeem his campaign. Complete bullshit.

7. If I knew nothing else about him...
...I would think he was an honorable man, from his concession speech. Yes, it was a good speech (but did you hear the boos and rude calls in the crowd?), but after his dirty campaign, I can't say much more than that.
