moderate Democratic party to Win Rockefeller.. For those that don't know Win Rockefeller was the first Republican governor of Arkansas since reconstruction. He won an Arkansas election where Arkansas also voted for George Wallace and Bill Fulbright. It was a very good time for me as a teen to be alive, to see the death of machine politics.

This is a long program, but has good insight on what difference 1 man can make in state politics.
