David Gergen a racist.... After watching, listening and learning I now feel I was wrong in making that assessment of David.... I actually think he is probably a very caring person (even though he might be a Hillary supporter).

If that offended anyone, you have my appologies...

2. Kudos to you for your intellectual honesty!
Gergen served as counselor to President Clinton on both foreign policy and domestic affairs, so there is a long-standing tie.

3. Gergen's an institution,
and, from all accounts, a good man. I've watched him for years, serving as an adviser to Presidents both Democrat and Republican.

You'll like him when you learn some about him: http://tinyurl.com/552bk5

4. It's encouraging to see a post like this.
People are wrong all the time, but it's way too rare to see someone reconsider their position, and rarer still that they actually change their mind and "admit" it. Stubbornness is not a virtue and too many people think it is.
