Yes he did. The Story was covered in most of the major news magazines. He is a typical example of Southern Racist's. He wanted to discriminate and spread racial hate of minorities, and at the same time lusted over minority women. A Legacy of shame! But he was elected over and over again with this sort of mentality! America should also be ashamed...

It is True. He died before the secret was revealed so there was no point. The left was beside them selves for a while but his daughter respected him and kept quiet. This also explains his turnaround on civil rights legislation since he began his political career as an ardent segregationist and then voted for the 1964 civil rights act.
I supported him.
