most of these early activists were roman catholic, although a number of the prominent female leaders in the movement were protestants, including midding mildred jefferson who became head of the national organization. in mid 1971, the national right to life committee funded by the national conference of catholic bishops, was established as the national coordinating committee to provide information and material to these local organizations. but keep in mind it was the local activists, grassroots activism, that began the movement. this was before the supreme court's decision in roev. wade. with that decision which legalized and made abortion a constitutional right, american politics was transformed and it polarized the electorate in both major political parties. on the federal level, opponents of abortion in congress sought to repeal roe through the enactment of constitutional amendments or to prevent federal funding of abortion. meanwhile on the state level, anti-abortion groups undertook efforts to limit legalized abortion through restrictive abortion regulations. by the early -- by e

i refer to the common statement made among politicians that you as a roman catholic might suffer some difficulty as a candidate for president, as alfred e. smith did, but that as vice president you would add a great deal to the ticket. isn't that a different set of circumstances than previously existed, and what is your reaction to it? >> mr. wilson, i would be extremely sorry if they said, we won't take kennedy because he is a catholic, but we want him because he is a catholic for vice president. if we make the determination -- both those determinations on the grounds of my religion, regardless of any other factors, i would think that the democratic party would not deserve to be successful, because you would be giving an office to a candidate who potentially could be the president, in either case, and whose only claim under those conditions would be that he happened to go to church on sunday to the catholic church. i must say i would consider that at a most crucial time in the life of this country to be a disastrous way of picking a ticket. one of the ways that i hope to make it clea
