RICHMOND, Va. — He offeredthe first formal apology for thiscity’s role in the slave trade. He ledthe effort to add a statue of ArthurAshe, a Richmond native, to itsMonument Avenue. He attended alargely black church and sent hischildren to racially mixed schools.
In Tim Kaine’s six years in Rich-mond’s government, he becameknown for his commitment to thecity’s African-Americans. Butthere were also stumbles as he be-gan to fashion himself as the cen-trist conciliator that he is knownas today, trying to steer a middlepath in a majority-black citydrenched in Confederate history.
No one here will forget the giant
picture of Robert E. Lee.It briefly graced a prominent
downtown wall in the spring of1999, setting offan angry reac-tion from manyAfrican-Ameri-cans in the city.Within days, itwas removed.

WASHINGTON — Few po-litical consultants have had a cli-ent fail quite as spectacularly asPaul Manafort’s did in Ukraine inthe winter of 2014.
President Viktor F. Yanu-kovych, who owed his election to,as an American diplomat put it, an“extreme makeover” Mr. Man-afort oversaw, bolted the countryin the face of violent streetprotests. He found sanctuary inRussia and never returned, as hispatron, President Vladimir V.Putin, proceeded to dismemberUkraine, annexing Crimea and fo-menting a war in two other prov-inces that continues.
Mr. Manafort was undaunted.Within months of his client’s po-
litical demise, he went to workseeking to bring his disgracedparty back to power, much as hehad Mr. Yanukovych himselfnearly a decade earlier. Mr. Man-afort has already had some suc-cess, with former Yanukovych loy-alists — and some Communists —forming a new bloc opposing
Ukraine’s struggling pro-Westerngovernment.
And now Mr. Manafort has tak-en on a much larger campaign,seeking to turn Donald J. Trumpinto a winningpresidential can-didate.
With Mr.Putin’s Russia,and its interfer-ence in Ukraine,becoming a fo-cus of the UnitedStates presiden-tial campaign,Mr. Manafort’swork in Ukraine has come underscrutiny — along with his busi-ness dealings with prominentUkrainian and Russian tycoons.

As Death Lurked, Tumors Melted
Immunotherapy Offers Cancer Patient Hope, Not Certainty
Continued on Page A10
By MATT RICHTELDENVER — A cancer patient nicknamed
the Steel Bull got his death sentence on agloomy March Wednesday in 2015.
He was 47, his given name Jason Green-stein, but he had earned the moniker from his
oncologist for hisstubborn will dur-ing more than fouryears of brutalchemotherapy and
radiation treatment — all of which had failed.That Wednesday, March 4, his left side
bulged with 15 pounds of tumor, doubling insize every few weeks. Lumps of Hodgkin’s
lymphoma cells swelled in his lungs, makingit hard to breathe, impinging a nerve andnearly paralyzing his left hand. Yet Mr.Greenstein, ever the optimist, was not pre-pared for his doctor’s frank words when hedisplayed his latest symptom: tumors alonghis right jawline, the first spread of cancer tothat side.
The oncologist, Dr. Mark Brunvand, said heexcused himself to the hallway to gather hisemotions. When he returned a moment later,he looked Mr. Greenstein in the eye.
“You are going to die,” he remembers say-ing. “And because you’re my friend, it’s my jobto make you as comfortable as possible.” Be-
Jason Greenstein, with his girlfriend, Beth Schwartz, has had highs and lows.

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif. —Shirley Babashoff gazed out at theLos Angeles Basin, tucked in a flatsheet of sunshine, and sighed. Thesame storm clouds that washedaway her prospects of seven goldmedals at the Montreal Olympics40 years ago are gathering overthe Summer Games in Rio de Ja-neiro, which begin this week,threatening a rush of new mem-bers into an elite club no onewants to join: athletes who weredenied a gold medal, or any medalat all, by competitors who weredoping.
Babashoff arrived at the Mont-real Olympics in 1976 with achance to match the performancein 1972 of Mark Spitz, whose sevengolds sealed his status as anAmerican icon and propelled himinto a career as a product pitch-man. Babashoff, a teammate ofSpitz’s at those Munich Olympics,swam significantly faster fouryears later only to settle for fourOlympic silver medals and one re-lay gold. Her career path as ahigh-profile endorser and motiva-tional speaker was blockaded bybroad-backed, husky-voiced EastGermans later found to have beenunwitting victims of a govern-ment-sponsored doping program.
Shamed by the news media andshunned by swimming officialsfor pointing out her competitors’cartoonish musculature and sug-gesting they were cheating, Ba-bashoff retreated into a self-im-posed, decades-long exile. Sheraised her son, Adam, now 30, as asingle mother well out of the spot-light while working as a postalcarrier in Huntington Beach,Calif.
“I worked so hard for what I did-n’t get,” Babashoff said, adding, “Ihad a bad taste in my mouth foryears.”
Babashoff, 59, recently re-en-tered public life. She lookedaround the sports landscape, andwhat she saw was disturbingly fa-miliar. Doping remains the

SPARTA, Ga. — When the dep-uty sheriff’s patrol cruiser pulledup beside him as he walked downBroad Street at sunset last Au-gust, Martee Flournoy, a 32-year-old black man, was both confusedand rattled. He had reason: In thiscorner of rural Georgia, African-Americans are arrested at a ratefar higher than that of whites.
But the deputy had not come toarrest Mr. Flournoy. Rather, hehad come to challenge Mr.Flournoy’s right to vote.
The majority-white HancockCounty Board of Elections andRegistration was systematicallyquestioning the registrations ofmore than 180 black Sparta citi-zens — a fifth of the city’s regis-tered voters — by dispatchingdeputies with summonses com-
manding them to appear in personto prove their residence or losetheir voting rights. “When I readthat letter, I was kind of nervous,”Mr. Flournoy said in an interview.“I didn’t know what to do.”
The board’s aim, a lawsuit laterclaimed, was to give an edge towhite candidates in Sparta’s mu-nicipal elections — and that No-vember, a white mayoral candi-

Donald J. Trump reeled on Sun-day amid a sustained campaign ofcriticism by the parents of a Mus-lim American soldier killed by asuicide bomber in Iraq and a ris-ing outcry within his own partyover his rough and religiouslycharged dismissal of the couple.
The confrontation between theparents, Khizr and Ghazala Khan,and Mr. Trump has emerged as anunexpected and potentiallypivotal flash point in the generalelection. Mr. Trump has plainlystruggled to respond to the re-proach of a military family wholost a son, and has answered theircriticism derisively — first imply-ing that Ms. Khan had been for-bidden to speak at the DemocraticNational Convention, then declar-ing that Mr. Khan had “no right” toquestion Mr. Trump’s familiarity
with the Constitution.And Mr. Trump’s usual political
tool kit has appeared to fail him.He earned no reprieve with hiscomplaints that Mr. Khan hadbeen unfair to him; on Sundaymorning, he claimed on Twitterthat Mr. Khan had “viciously at-tacked” him. Mr. Trump and hisadvisers tried repeatedly tochange the subject to Islamic ter-rorism, to no avail.
Instead, Mr. Trump appeared tobe caught on Sunday in one of thebiggest crises of his campaign, ri-valing the uproar in June after hesuggested a federal judge, Gon-zalo P. Curiel, was biased becauseof his Mexican heritage. By goingafter a military family and traf-ficking in ethnic stereotypes, Mr.Trump once again breached multi-ple norms of American politics, re-doubling pressure on his fellowRepublicans to choose between
