50. He entered Presidential race as a DEMOCRATIC candidate 3 Times!
Edited on Mon Jan-10-11 05:13 PM by eowyn_of_rohan
..and Independant once

* delegate to the 1948 Democratic National Convention
* Wallace ran for U.S. President in the November 1964 election and won a third of the vote in Wisconsin, Maryland and Indiana. (wikipidia)
* 1968 Wallace ran for President in the 1968 election as the American Independent Party candidate
* 1972 Wallace declared himself a Democratic candidate,& entered the field with George McGovern, Hubert Humphrey, and nine other Democratic opponents. The assassination attempt ended his run.
* also announced he would run as Dem in 1976

Your own post states, "he ran for U.S. president four times, running officially as a Democrat three times and in the American Independent Party once"

You want to talk about facts and end "simplisic rhetoric"? What's this: "Wallace's assassin, Bremer, was, as some right-wing female candidates might put it, just "manning up."
