Kim is trying to make the point that he’s just a regular guy<\/a>. He’s right, too, he is the kind of guy you could sit next to at a bar and swap tales and buy brews and generally have a great time. <\/p>\n

On the third hand, however, here’s a guy who had a classical education. A man more well read than 90% of the people I know. A man who speaks a handful of languages. A man who came from outside this country, with an outsider’s perspective, and made specific conscious choices to come and stay here. A man who understands our constitution, and laws, better, shamefully, than most of us. <\/p>\n

Finally, a gentleman. Married to a genuine lady. With bright and sane and respectful children. <\/p>\n
