Duke rhymes with puke. He might be an intelligent guy, but he's done some real narcissistic things in his life. He is a false idol as are many politicians. He spent many years in the middle east when he could've helped out his constituency in Louisiana. I also find it weird that he lives in Mandeville, which if pronounced a certain way could sound out Man Devil. I believe the only person that deserves idolizing and admiration is our creator.

numanist rhymes with rain-man troll...-ist

Yeah I knew that, but the thing is a lot of intelligent and widely respected people were once called radicals. The truth is everybody has the capacity to change. Look at Paul the apostle from the bible. Paul was one of Christianity's biggest persecutors, but he later became one of Jesus's biggest supporters.

I hear you. Similarily, take a look at Rudolph the red nosed reindeer.

He's just sitting there waiting for his seat at the big table, while dasher and dancer and blitzen get all the glory. Does he stop, no. He's still in the game. He ignored the haters that said " you can't do it Rudolph" but he kept his head up.

Then one foggy Christmas eve, Santa Claus gave him a shot, and he capitalized. Now who's leading Santa's sleigh, my man Rudolph.

Aloha!
