That alone could have helped, true or not, he said “ basically “ as where Mr Trump is not reaching a certain people, bc, the word division, is enforcing it. Not saying all Americans basically, have the same common interest. Isn’t that strong from a man from Alabama? Compared to a different man from NY. I mean every way NU is larger, and wealthier, it was used in multiple movies for example. Alabama is like GA then or even Mississippi, a far deep southern state, politically George Wallace, got Alabama National attention. And over the country, he was well known in name.

As a high school student, I protested this man's hatred and bigotry at one of his rallies in Indiana (a stronghold for the KKK) in the Spring of 1972 while my mother and brother's stood in the front of the crowd cheering him on as he spoke after landing at the airport. He was shot May 15th on the campaign trail about 2 months later. My mother was a member of the Indiana delegation to the 1972 Democratic National Convention in Miami in July pledged to George Wallace and our family accompanied her. The Indiana delegation was invited to meet with Mr. Wallace at the convention less than two months after he was shot five times and paralyzed. Being 17, I didn't have much choice in my family about if I would be going or not. I shook the hand of this frightened, paralyzed man as flash bulbs on cameras went off despite them being forbidden. His expression was like a deer in the headlights. I'm saddened to think of all the people in a similar physical situation or dead due to his rhetoric of hate.

[@garryholmberg6502]

The 60s were a decade of violence due to civil unrest. Black Americans were weary of being second-class citizens. Separate entrances to buildings, sitting in the back of the bus, even separate water fountains. Not to mention the mistreatment, violence, and murders inflicted upon them because of a racist belief that they were inferior to whites. Segregation needed to end there was no other choice. That of course didn't stop those who felt Black Americans were forgetting their place, as if that wasn't racist. But they had been raised in an America where they expected to be treated better than Black Americans, so this was an unfortunate but predictable point of view. The segregated black communities did lose something when integration became the law of the land. The community and togetherness that brought them close by being compressed into small areas of town or the state as a result of segregation and racism were lost as they were no longer kept in those small communities. Customs and understanding of their culture were lost as integration progressed, but this was also expected, while unfortunate. What makes this video and other George Wallace videos on KZbin notable, is not the racism or bigotry disguised as the restoration of law and order is the same sales pitch that MAGA and Trump use today. So 70 years later we have essentially a reboot of the George Wallace campaign. They say if you don't know your history you are doomed to repeat it. I would say the Wallace and Trump campaigns and platforms are eerily similar in many ways. Of course, Trump actually made it in the Oval Office, but what happened during the administration and on Jan 6th, could have been predicted. And if Wallace had made it to the Oval office his administration would like have mirrored Trumps because similar views, similar approaches, are likely to yield similar behaviors and outcomes. And it should be noted that Wallace was a Democrat who then ran as an independent. So although the story is the same, it is clear that this rhetoric can come from either party, and we must think critically about what any person says, and determine the accuracy and the genuineness of those statements

[@allabouttruth4547]

Multi Cultural societies will never and can never succeed. Wallace understood that what is realized now today, that desegregation would lead to the destruction of the country. The supposed unrest was fueled by Marxist figures like MLK who rained violent riots on to the streets in the name of justice, same as the Floyd riots of recent times. What they really wanted was to upset the established order and purity and replace it with degeneracy and chaos, which we see today. Trump on the contrary fails to see this as a race issue and falsely believes it's simply a left right wing issue.

It was a 10th amendment state's rights campaign. He would have gotten a lot more votes if people weren't so afraid of Hubert Humphrey. They wanted to vote Wallace , but voted Nixon just to keep Humphrey out of the White House. Hopefully Trump will turn the schools back over to the states and localities and abolish the Department of Education. They have no right under the Constitution to have stolen the schools from us. We would have also won the Vietnam War. Government would have never have become slave masters of the American people. The education of the schools has terribly damaged the young people. A number of them couldn't even read their diplomas. The Great Society welfare state would have been dismantled and people would not be so dependent on government and far more freedom.

That was only thirty years ago, policy isn't enough to change lives, people have to change their attitudes too. Seperately, northerners could probably see Wallace's opportunism, which Southerner's couldn't as they were blinded by being so vehemontly scared of civil rights. It's important to remember the south wanted to rewrite confederate history to preserve confederate culture by making slavery appear humane. Sorry for the word vomit. Just my thoughts. I appreciate being able to have this discussion with you.

51:28 - Well, you can't say he ain't honest. It's quite hilarious. Of course, Wallace is trying to be "politically correct" in all his responses. He just can't shake off his "segregationist" temperament . But, here come some "intellectuals" to grill him.

52:40 - Professor Billington is saying, in a bizarrely convoluted way, that state oppression provokes revolution.

I can’t resist adding something in re the California pietists shown at about 25:20, affirming what they think is the tightness of the American misadventure in Vietnam -- mainly because their boy is involved in it. There is more than a faint odor of tragedy in this scene. The fulsomeness of what I call rhetorical prayer always disturbed me, with the doxological formula “in Jesus’ name” and a fervent “A-MAN!” At the end. The poet Robert Lowell, a backer of Eugene McCarthy in those long-ago days, once remarked, “I fear that, if we fail, we shall be superseded by a reign of piety and iron”. Alas, Lowell’s fear was not groundless. Today we have an unholy alliance between Donald Trump (who knows no religion except self-worship) and fundamentalist Christians.

Trump would have loved him; at least, for awhile.

[@ClusterStar]

He was so on the wrong site of history and choice to be on that wrong side, that I do not understand why this power-addicted person would stere any sympathy. It's ideas that first of all matter not the people vocalizing them. It must be my European heritage that makes me think this way.

[@blossom1643]

Must be.

Most of his supporters didn't have a lot of gray matter, but Wallace himself was far from stupid.

We already have a George Wallace occupying the Oval Office right now. His name is Donald Trump. Lincoln should have allowed the Confederacy to secede so that we would not have a president appealing to country bumpkins and yokels.

[@webb12344]

If Lincoln would have let the Confederacy to secede I would have immigrated to the south to live with the country bumpkins and yokels!

George Corley Wallace Jr. ​ fue un político y nacionalista blanco estadounidense que fue gobernador de Alabama durante cuatro mandatos. Miembro del Partido Demócrata, se le recuerda sobre todo por sus firmes opiniones segregacionistas y populistas.​​​

[@miked9112]

Wallace was a great man, wish he was around today to knock some sense into these creeps who are always protesting that they were wronged in some way
