Having read the other comments, I want to say, just back off Clinton. Why not see what wholesome and dramatic positive changes he's made, and how willing he is to share how it has given him a new lease on life? Really, vegans can be so picky! The truth is, his changes are MAJOR. No he's not a 'perfect' vegan in your eyes, but try to acknowledge dietary changes are a DYNAMIC PROCESS and not always 100% or nothing.
As a group, vegans would serve the world more if they could exercise some flexibility and compassion for others who do not eat just like they do.

We vegans continue to alienate the rest of the world when we see it is black and white, right and wrong. Not eating meat doesn't necessarily make us more spiritual or better people. The compassion we extend towards animals and the environment -ought we not also extend to other humans? Instead we are quick to judge.
Clinton has made an extraordinary shift and is willing to talk about how his changes have helped him. He has said he's an experimenter, and that means he's willing to try it out, and see what he learns on this path of self discovery.
He's said his interest is in plant based food choices.
I feel grateful he's had such an awakening - I don't condemn him because he eats fish on occasion. Being critical of others does not support their transformation - it just polarizes.
