American Independent Party
George Wallace ran in the 1968 presidential election as an independent candidate. He championed states rights and a policy of segregation, appealing to southern white voters who were resistant to the civil rights movement. Although he did not win the presidency, Wallace's campaign had a significant impact on politics and race relations in the United States.
George Wallace was a polarizing figure in local and national politics due to his violent anti-black / pro-segregation policies. His support of such like-minded racists as Sheriff Bull Connor who turned firehoses and dogs on peaceful anti-segregationist marchers in Selma, Al, served to focus the world's attention on America's dysfunctional race relations.
The Alabama Governor was a Democrat. Quote from his inaugural speech: "In the name of the greatest people that have ever trod this earth, I draw the line in the dust and toss the gauntlet before the feet of tyranny, and I say segregation today, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever."
