Wallace pressed a national campaign to oppose Nixon over what he called the destruction of public schools. He urged mass meetings letters and petitions and warned of a 1972 defeat unless the president commits to student desegregation and a meaningful tax reform for low and middle income earners. He suggested a southern strategy aimed at countering federal desegregation across the region.
