Lee Atwater

I had never heard of Atwater before watching this documentary so I was able to form an opinion solely based off of what I saw in the film. To me, he seemed like a narcissist. He obviously knew the political system inside and out but he used it to mostly benefit himself. He was a showman up until he died and while I think he did have regrets, he did not talk about them sincerely with anyone. The Bible he asked for that was left unopened basically says he doesn't actually care about actually reading the Bible, but rather he wanted people to give him Bibles to make it seem like he was a changed man. It was pretty weird to see his tactics to manipulate the political system still being used today, especially with this presidency.
