我预测2020会出现类似Trump的GOPer，但是没有Trump那么多的baggage。
In 1968, George Wallace ran as a third-party candidate against Nixon and
Humphrey, on an explicitly segregationist platform. Humphrey had been the
main champion of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 in the Senate; Nixon, while no
civil rights activist, rejected an overtly racist platform. Feeling
abandoned by both parties, Southern white racists flocked to Wallace's cause
, winning him the Deep South states of Ark., La., Miss., Ala. and Ga.
Political analyst and Nixon campaigner Kevin Phillips, analysing 1948-1968
voting trends, viewed these rebellious Southern voters as ripe for
Republican picking.
In The Emerging Republican Majority (Arlington House, 1969), he correctly
predicted that the Republican party would shift its national base to the
South by appealing to whites' disaffection with liberal democratic racial
and welfare policies. President Nixon shrewdly played this "Southern
strategy" by promoting affirmative action in employment, a "wedge" issue
that later Republicans would exploit to split the Democratic coalition of
white working class and black voters. |
