Back in the '70s, I thought the state was finally getting it together and moving out of the Dixiecrat era. In the previous decade, we had elected a progressive Republican as governor, as well as an anti-war Democrat for Senate, but the state just couldn't pull itself away from its segregationist roots when it voted for an avowed segregationist in George Wallace for President. If Bobby Kennedy had lived and gotten the nomination, I believe the state would have voted for Bobby.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
