I just meant the law required it. It was a poorly worded statement.

I have since made clear that I don't think he really possessed the power to make a strong push until maybe '65.

I'd love to hear whether Bama folks think Wallace would've denied his request to admit blacks in '65 had he made his desires public knowledge.
