not just a southerner, but a southerner from georgia.immy carter, this is the time magazine cover from 1971, had been in the united states navy. he was from plains, georgia, grew up on a farm. in the navy, he had been an engineer, done submarine duty, and when he gets back, he decides that he has a responsibility to run for office. his early campaigns are notable. first, he runs for state office in georgia. in the 1960's he decides to make a run for the governorship of georgia and he is essentially defeated in the democratic primary by lester maddox. maddox runs a fairly racial campaign, leaving carter on the outside as a moderate. in 1970, when carter comes back running against carl sanders, it is carter who in the campaign takes the more extreme position. in fact, carter will draw off voters who had voted for wallace, nixon, and others. it looks as if he is going to represent the more traditional segregationist element in georgia, and he wins. but notably when he becomes governor, he takes a very different position, especially on race.

indeed, southern whites formed the dominant element in the coalition, working in tandem with black southerners and northern transplants to the south. most of these white southern republicans, like longstreet, saw the republican party as the means to an end. relatively few had an interest in racial justice. from the start of reconstruction, opponents of the congressional program used propaganda, fraud and violence to draw these southern whites in the republican coalition back into the democratic hold. the demonizing of longstreet was an essential element of that project, as he was the most prominent former confederate to join republican ranks and set a potentially dangerous example. it was a threat that had to be neutralized in their minds. the anti-longstreet ire of southern newspapers was stoked by northern enthusiasm by the -- enthusiasm for the rebel's general's letters. republican newspapers lavished praise on longstreet and held him up as a bellwether. the san francisco daily bulletin saw evidence that a "revolution in opinion has begun in the late slave states and the reconstructing act
