Brilliant mind and very honest

[@ferabra8939]

He was extremely witty. Brevity is the essence of wit, and he describes what a democracy should be like in a few words and he's spot on.

Gore Vidal is one of the most wonderful men and one of the greatest reasons to have a clone bank.

His wit alone!!!

[@robertrichard6107]

Gore Vidal was not an Italian ex-pat, he paid his U.S. taxes every year. I liked that ending, Clancy was a CIA spin book author, he got that nailed right.
