I don't know about that, but he did have some racist views. But so did most white folks who lived through the civil war. :D

Good riddance I say. The guy was a racist and a proven example of what is wrong with American politics today. I hate to wish death on anybody but America would have been better off if he had died 50 years ago.

yeah basically he was a really rotten person during the prime of his life, and mellowed out as he got older so he didnt lose his job.

To keep his job? He ended up winning one election via write in votes. Maybe he went with racist views to get elected in a region rife with racism. How do you know what was in his head?

All I know is he had great taste in the ladies!

Seems to me that this fucker flip-flopped more than a fish straight out of water to get the votes.

Regardless of who he was though, may he rest in peace.
