    Yeah it really threw him off.

    Itbwould have been cleaner if he said something along the lines of “I was there that summer and witnessed the people. History in the making. It was a few months after the march. I took my class’s blah blah blah.”

    A “real politician” would have set the record straight without using a negative word like “I was wrong/incorrect”

    His answer was a lot more genuine toe because of that. He over-explained due to nervousness and then said “I misspoke”

    I’d say he came in just under on that.
