Wilson's grandson, Francis B. Sayre Jr., would go on to spit on his grandfather's legacy by openly opposing segregation, even going so far as to participate in the Selma March alongside MLK. He was also a vicious critic of McCarthy, labeling him as a "pretended patriot".

@erraticonteuse Jefferson had his virtues, and while his view towards slavery was insultingly patronizing by modern standards, he may have had a point when he said that keeping them would also protect them from being lynched; he also refused to whip them, banned the international slave trade, and was against expanding it. And he did believe that women should get an education, and supported early suffragists.

@JK-gu3tl There undoubtedly were, but he just as often went after folks he simply didn't like.

@JK-gu3tl And then there were the Rosenbergs.

@latinhero1818 I'm aware that they were present, but like I said, McCarthy, like the typical leader of a witch hunt, used the chaos to go after people he just didn't like, as well.

@erraticonteuse I see. Care to cite your source on this? Not trying to be sarcastic; this looks like something worth studying. And I won't deny he had his hypocritical traits, but he also had his share of virtues that would seem pretty insulting today, but were groundbreaking in his time--which is more than I can say for Wilson.

@Lazbotable Harrison had an interesting life BEFORE the presidency.
