robert byrd would be turning over in his grave if he thinks we will change the rules of the senate by breaking the rules. he would never do it. he was the protector of the senate and now that he is gone and when republicans were thinking about doing this, they knew it would ruin the senate and it will. consequently not only will we have all these budgetary things the senate will not function. you were totally unwind the senate into another house of representatives in the history of the senate as a deliberative body will be gone. with one vote in january. because it will set in motion a chain reaction that will create a reaction over here when we do that, it will create another reaction over here and it will fall down to the lowest common denominator, the house of representatives, the rules committee dominated by the majority and that is it, it is over. >> host: roger in new mexico, a few minutes left on booktv's "in depth". >> caller: i will try to be quick but i got to save the senator reminds me of my grandparents in oklahoma. they lived by the rule of two wrongs don't make a right

and these laws were part of something called the southern strategy by senator byrd, who led the statesin the south to his, his phrase was will do everything we can to massively resist integration. the laws that were passed were bizarre things. they ende ended compulsory educn industry. as soon as any negro child goes into a white school, and amusing of course the terminology of the time, the governor can immediately seize control of that school. there was a provision in the law that anyone that didn't want to go through integrated schools could get state funding to go to a private whites only school. these are called segregation academies. and the most important part of the movement was the any time any school was integrated in any public school was integrated, the governor immediately seize control of that and closer. he could close all of the administrative and financial persons at that point. in 1958, after a series of laws, the federal court said you must admit 17 african-americans. now, up to that point there has been a lot of lawsuits to african-americans sued -- through the naac
