Journalist Bill Shipp moderates this 1995 Georgia Public Policy Foundation conversation with former Georgia Governors Carl Sanders and Ernest Vandiver, Jr., and former House Speaker George T. Smith.

In this third of three programs the panel discusses bitter campaigns for governor during the 1960s, the role of school segregation in politics, the legacy -- good or bad -- of Governor Lester Maddox and their view about why Bo Callaway never became Georgia Governor.

Governor Sanders served 1963 to 1967 and today is chairman emeritus of Atlanta-based Troutman Sanders. Governor Vandiver cleaned up a previously corrupt Georgia state government during his 1959 to 1963 term. He died in 2005. Speaker Smith's career included service on the Georgia Court of Appeals and Georgia Supreme Court. He died in 2010. Shipp is retired after one of Georgia's legendary careers in political journalism.
