Baron’s son, Andrew, provided this statement by e-mail:
I would not be bothered at all by anything Andrew Young said about my dad. According to the New York Times, Mr. Young signed an affidavit asserting that he was the father of Rielle Hunter’s child but then later renounced that statement, claiming that he knew all along that John Edwards was the child’s father. Meanwhile, Edwards claimed that he didn’t have an affair, then later he claimed that he did. It’s surprising to me that this kind of behavior is legal in politics.
If anyone ever wasn’t on an ego trip, it was my dad. Ask anyone who really knew him and they will tell you he was one of the most selfless people on Earth. He believed in the beauty of democracy and was completely motivated by the ideals of the Democratic Party.
