How well do you know Wallace?
"He argued that his early devotion to segregation was based on his reading of the Constitution and the Bible and was misinterpreted as a racist hatred of black people.
''I made a mistake in the sense that I should have clarified my position more,'' he said in his last term as Governor. ''I was never saying anything that reflected upon black people, and I'm very sorry it was taken that way.''
That Mr. Wallace died haunted by race is appropriate to his life story --
