YES...that’s what I thought...and I agree with you...paternity MIGHT be the issue, however, spending what people have said has been spent (100’s of thousands of dollars) to prevent revelation of paternity seems odd. Paternity these days doesn’t seem THAT big a deal....and could be “storied”...i.e. he could have a story around it that people believe.
Not if his father was Franklin Marshall Davis, communist and pedophile.
