I was living in Shepherdstown during the Peace Summit between Israel and Syria that was held there. I performed music for Israeli diplomats during that summit A summit that went nowhere fast because the Syrians walked out. George Wallace was once a pivotal figure in the US government. I know that George Wallace was in Alabama state government for many years. And he did run as a third party candidate for president. But, I don't recall that he was ever any kind of figure, let alone pivotal, in the US government.
