"You won't make the rules around here, and we aren't going to play your little game. If you want to bring red-diaper historians and assorted campus Marxists in here, you do so at your own peril."

The filters favor your side, after 30 years of unemployable Marxists tunneling into the tenure system, most of whom probably agree with your agenda out of deference to Marx's own admiration of Lincoln, and so it's understandable you would want to leverage an asset: the high head-count of Wingy profs liable to agree with you on warring down the South.
