Here’s another one:

“I don’t hate blacks. The day I said ‘segregation forever,’ I never said a thing that would upset a black person unless it was segregation. I never made fun of ‘em about inequality and all that kind of stuff. But my vehemence was against the federal government folks. I didn’t make people get mad against black people. I made ‘em get mad against the courts.”

I remember Gov. Wallace as very humble in his latter years, don’t think you will see that in any of our current group. I agreed with a lot of what he said during his presidential campaign (have come to realize there was great insight to his statement “there’s not a dimes worth of difference between the two parties) about and the abuse of the courts (what little good they have done is overshadowed by the harm). Hope they show the man he became, but they probably won’t.
