Calling takes me down below 1200... no one agrees that I can fold and still have a healthy stack?

You're still in decent shape even if you lose, and if you win you're in great shape to dominate until the money. You're just too far ahead of his range to fold. A very conservative estimate of his hands would be JJ+ and AQ+, and you're getting great odds even against that range. There are 24 ways he could have a bigger pair and 32 ways he could have AK/AQ. So you're more likely to be ahead, and you're getting about 2.5 to 1. Easy call factoring in the chances of a smaller pair, weaker ace, or even KQ.
