Is it me, or can his comments be made to mean something else as well. Sure, Thurmond was a racist back in his day but he did evolve over time. And he had other planks when he ran for president: State's Rights, a low federal tax burden and a low balanced federal budget. Could it not be assumed he may have been referring to these? Why is it always race?

Because the Liberals painted it that way from the start, and since they control the media, they get to state the terms of every debate. If we fail to contest the terms at the outset, the sheeple take the liberals word for it.
