He's got one photo of himself in a straw hat, looking like a plantation owner's son, another showing him lounging next to his Corvette, and then the blackface/klan photo. And, this is a man who has already graduated from VMI, and is in Medical School. How much of a kid are you still, by the time you're in Medical School??
Nothing about any of those photos jumps out at me and says, "There's a great young Scientist, about to embark upon a medical career.". If anything, he was simply flaunting how much better he is, than the rest of us. The kind of "privileged kid" that could get away with untold deeds that the rest of us would get held to the fire for.
Apparently, his VMI yearbook lists one of his nicknames as "Coonman." All I'm going to say is how the hell was this missed in his 2007 campaign for the General Assembly, his 2013 campaign for LG, and his 2017 race for governor?
