George Wallace got some praise from the NAACP when he was a judge. That didn’t change the fact he race baited like crazy when he became Alabama’s governor and later a presidential candidate.
George Wallace:
Lost the 1958 primary for Alabama Governor
Opponent was endorsed by KKK, Wallace was endorsed by NAACP
“You know why I lost…I got out ni____ed. I will never be out ni___ed again.”
“I tried to talk about good roads and good schools…nobody listened. And then I started to talk about n___s, and they stomped the floor.”
