“One of the most striking scenes of the 1970s was Hubert Humphrey’s funeral. Seated next to Hubert’s beloved wife was former President Richard M. Nixon, a long-time political adversary of Humphrey, and a man disgraced by Watergate. Humphrey himself had asked Nixon to have that place of honor.

Reverend Jackson, knowing their past relationship, asked Humphrey why.

And what I have concluded about life is that when all is said and done, we must forgive each other, redeem each other, and move on. Do”
