"I will never submit to fight beneath that banner with a Negro by my side. Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds&.

Robert C. Byrd, in a letter to Sen. Theodore G. Bilbo (D-MS)

"The Klan is needed today as never before, and I am anxious to see its rebirth here in West Virginia"

Robert C. Byrd. in a letter to KKK Imperial Wizard.

Other quotes from the former Majority Leader:

"There are white niggers. I've seen a lot of white niggers in my time. I'm going to use that word."

"They call me 'The Pork King,' they don't know how much I enjoy it."

Of course he also has many other "achievements", like becoming a KKK Kleagle, filibustering the Civil Rights Act of 1964 for 14 hours or defending the KKK during his Senate campaign.
