I can remember actually watching that and i was amazed to see the transformation from segregationist to basically receiving that type of recognition. Thank you very much.

You are on the contenders. We are live from montgomery alabama. Thank you very much. What appeal did governor wallace have to white ethnic, and religious groups like jews, catholics, etc. , outside of the south and the urban areas . Also, what did he take of senator goldwater .
