Thanks!
Important note: Liberals also try to include Jesse Helms in the list, but that is incorrect. They were defined by membership in the The States’ Rights Democratic Party, in the election of 1948. At that time, Helms was a newspaper city editor of The Raleigh Times. The SRDP dissolved after losing that election, though they came close to being a spoiler which would have made Republican Thomas Dewey, not Harry Truman, president. Truman won in a squeaker.
Though Helms later did join with the Dixiecrats, he was not a charter member, so does not get that label. Oddly enough, neither does Governor Orville Faubus of Arkansas, who led the standoff against integration of the Little Rock public school system against Eisenhower, and was later Bill Clinton’s mentor.
