Perhaps, but they are part of the same family, and as powerful as they are, I would think he would have at least some of the less than desirable characteristics as his brother.

And again, he also keeps whining and bitching about how the Empire banned the public worship of Talos while he doesn't seem have a problem keeping the Reachmen in such terrible conditions and keeping THEM from doing whatever cultural and/or religious stuff they have like the Jarl before him if he becomes one, and he's related to the friggin family that is responsible for this horrid treatment in the first place. I don't like the Forsworn either(I don't think anybody here does), but they are a result of the sub-par hospitality courtesy of the Nords. Again, while I don't like them, they and the other Reachmen are pretty high up on my People To Feel Sorry For list.
