"hostility toward civil rights for blacks"
"made it rock-ribbed Democratic until the middle 1960s when hostility towards civil rights for blacks drove it to George Wallace in 1968 and Richard Nixon in 1972"

so it was democratic and then hostility toward blacks drove it to wallace (a democrat governor of alabama)... and then nixon in 72? hostility towards civil rights drove them to nixon?!?! wallace ran as independent against nixon and LBJ's VP in 68. there was a higher % of GOP than dems who voted for the civil rights act and it was first introduced by eisenhower, who desegregated the military (after dems resegregated it) and then used the military to desegregate the schools in little rock (run by dems) after brown vs board of ed which ike's AG filed a brief in the case asking for desegregation.

this is convoluted.

it is claiming out of hostility to blacks they left the democrats (the party of segregation and the KKK) and voted for the GOP, who spearheaded desegregation and historically had the support of blacks. Christo1234 (talk) 10:51, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
