Bob Herbert claims that the statement "I believe in states' rights" is a code phrase for the endorsement of racial crimes and the KKK.

Only the most biased of liberals think that accusation can stand on its own.


From the op-ed:

To see Reagan’s appearance at the Neshoba County Fair in its proper context, it has to be placed between the murders of the civil rights workers that preceded it and the acknowledgment by the Republican strategist Lee Atwater that the use of code words like “states’ rights” in place of blatantly bigoted rhetoric was crucial to the success of the G.O.P.’s Southern strategy.

It was a Republican that said it Ten so it must be true.
