Abstract: The object of this paper is the study of conservatism and its relationship to George Wallace's third party movement in his 1968 Presidential bid. Important in such a study is not so much party organization, but that of ideology or political thinking. Why did Wallace's appeal to as many people as he did? What are the social-psychological characteristics of the people who found Wallace so appealing? These answers will hopefully come from an analysis of two trends in political thinking -- conservatism and authoritarianism.
