Question 64 • AA-F26 Physical Science

Which statement from Governor George Wallace's inaugural address best supports his claim that Southerners are the founders of the American way of life?

Answer

Hear me, Southerners! You sons and daughters who have moved north and west throughout this nation . . . we call on you from your native soil to join with us in national support.

The great writer, Rudyard Kipling, wrote of them, that: "There in the Southland of the United States of America, lives the greatest fighting breed of man . . . in all the world!"

Southerners played a most magnificent part in erecting this great divinely inspired system of freedom . . . and as God is our witness, Southerners will save it.

Let us rise to the call of freedom-loving blood that is in us and send our answer to the tyranny that clanks its chains upon the South.

Explanation

Choice C directly says that Southerners helped erect the system of freedom, supporting the claim that they were founders of the American way of life. The other statements call on Southerners, praise their fighting spirit, or urge resistance to tyranny, but do not specifically describe their role in establishing the nation’s system of freedom.
