Ha ha, you're all over the place. 

Wait a minute, you would vote Stevenson in the primaries in '56 and then vote against him in the general?
Why?

There was no real Republican primary that year to challenge Eisenhower.

Yet you vote for Stevenson in '52..........
What difference was there between '52 and '56 that made you prefer Eisenhower the second time around?

[Bo]

1948: Strom Thurmond (SR)

You know he was an extreme racist, right? Even Goldwater appeared moderate in comparison to him, and you would have voted against Godlwater.

[Dancing with Myself]

1948: Strom Thurmond (SR)

You know he was an extreme racist, right? Even Goldwater appeared moderate in comparison to him, and you would have voted against Godlwater.

I choose Thurmond because he is from the south, and i choose Johnson because of his ad campaign.

[James Rivington]

1948: Strom Thurmond (SR)

You know he was an extreme racist, right? Even Goldwater appeared moderate in comparison to him, and you would have voted against Godlwater.

I choose Thurmond because he is from the south

......and an extreme racist. So again, why vote for him?

[Obnoxiously Slutty Girly Girl]

1948: Strom Thurmond (SR)

You know he was an extreme racist, right? Even Goldwater appeared moderate in comparison to him, and you would have voted against Godlwater.

I choose Thurmond because he is from the south, and i choose Johnson because of his ad campaign.

How come you didn't vote for George Wallace in 1968? He's from the South.

[Dancing with Myself]

I would not vote for Wallace because he was not experienced enough to be president in my opinion, when Nixon led a smart, and hard hitting  campaign.

[k-onmmunist]

lol Winston hates the black man

Nah, I hate centralists.

[Obnoxiously Slutty Girly Girl]

I would not vote for Wallace because he was not experienced enough to be president in my opinion, when Nixon led a smart, and hard hitting  campaign.

Thurmond was only governor for two years before his 1948 campaign. Wallace at least finished his first term as governor before 1968.
