Primarily of interest to students of Atlanta history, it’s also a great reminder of the way that politics works, a lesson that can be applied anywhere and anytime. For instance, I learned how Jimmy Carter essentially rode the coattails of segregationist Lester Maddox to the governorship of Georgia, even engaging in race-baiting. Hard to believe, looking at the things he has done since. Or maybe not so hard to believe after all, since he has not proven himself to be above doing whatever it takes to get and keep power.
