== Perry W. Howard, II and Robert A. Taft ==
Hi BHathorn, when I was reading your excellent article on [[Wirt Yerger]], I saw that you made a rather brief mention of [[Perry Wilbon Howard, II]], for whom I started an article on yesterday. Now, I noticed in your Yerger article that you said Howard supported [[Robert A. Taft]] for the GOP presidential nomination in 1952 over Eisenhower, and also had put in:
{{cquote|Taft said, "No segregationist belongs on a Republican ticket or even in the party."}}
Now, was that quote actually by Sen. Taft or his son? When I looked it up, a number of sources say that the quote was actually by the latter. Also, is there any significant mention of Howard in your publication "Challenging the Status Quo: Rubel Lex Phillips and the Mississippi Republican Party (1963-1967)," and if so, perhaps you can add a few more additions/citations/copyedits as helpful to the Perry W. Howard, II article I started? Thank you once again! —[[User:Liberaltears|<code><span style="color:black; background:#FFABAB">'''LT'''</span></code>]]'''''[[User talk:Liberaltears|<sup>May D.C., his mother, and I.S. be all well!</sup>]]''''' Friday, 15:45, October 15, 2021 (EDT)
