Hardly Sparkman Again Denounces 1956 Democratic Civil Rights Split
The Democrats likely will not nominate Sen. John J. Sparkman for Vice President again as they aim to soften civil rights rifts. The Southern manifesto signed by 17 Senators and 77 Representatives attacks the Supreme Court for school desegregation and pledges legal action to reverse it. The stance risks alienating non Southern voters and conflicts with Adlai Stevenson’s position. Sparkman’s anti immigration piece in the Congressional Record also drew fire from FDR and Truman factions, who previously backed him for his liberal record beyond civil rights.
