This is ironic. Theodore Bilbo was perhaps the most loathsome demagogue ever to serve in the United States Senate. He disgraced every institution he ever served in. Wherever he is right now, I hope he got to watch the election this year. As much as I dislike Obama in the White House, it would be just deserts for Bilbo to see how discredited he is.
I Ted Kennedy was a Senator. I think murder out weighs any of the Mississippi Senators beliefs, which were the same as Byrd of WVA, he was just more public with his
Bilbo: “I believe Negroes should have the right [to indiscriminate use of the ballot], and in Mississippi too—when their main purpose is not to put me out of office and when they won’t try to besmirch the reputation of my state.”
So they can vote, if they vote for you? LOL.
