- Charles_L._Sullivan abstract "Charles L. Sullivan (August 20, 1924 – April 18, 1979) was an American politician, attorney and military pilot. He was the 24th Lieutenant Governor of Mississippi from 1968 to 1972 and a General in the United States Air National Guard. An Air National Guard facility in Jackson, Mississippi is named after him.An attorney from Clarksdale, Mississippi, Sullivan ran in Texas for President of the United States in the 1960 presidential election as the candidate of the Constitution Party. He and Merritt Curtis (who was a Presidential Candidate in other states) received 18,162 votes in Texas, the only state where he was on the ballot, or 0.79% of the Texas popular vote. In 1963, Sullivan ran for Governor of Mississippi and lost to eventual winner, Lt. Gov. Paul B. Johnson, Jr. Like all Mississippi political candidates of the era, Sullivan was a staunch segregationist and modeled his campaign on defending apartheid in Mississippi as it came under attack by the Federal government (particularly the judiciary) and by mostly local activists involved with the black freedom struggle.Sullivan finally won statewide political office during a fierce campaign during the 1968 elections. As Gov. Paul B. Johnson, Jr., running for his old spot as Lt. Governor, campaigned for law and order, Sullivan and eventual Governor-elect John Bell Williams emphasized their ability to roll back required federal changes to the state's segregation policy as outlined by the 1964 Civil Rights Act and 1965 Voting Rights Act. Despite thousands of blacks newly registered to vote in Mississippi, the two segregationists candidate for the executive office, Williams and Sullivan, claimed overwhelming victories. In the next four years of Sullivan's term, he and Williams attempted to mollify whites' angst in response to the school desegregation orders (often called "immediate integration") as ordered by the Federal judiciary in Alexander v. Holmes. Both Sullivan and Gov. Williams both followed the law, but in the same breath endorsed white flight from the state's public school system for hastily established private academies that U.S. Senator Walter Mondale (D-MN) called "segregation academies."Sullivan was killed in a plane crash in 1979 at the age of 54.".
