  • The Significance and Impact of Women
    THE SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF WOMEN ON THE RISE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IN TWENTIETH CENTURY TEXAS Kristi Throne Strickland, B.B.A., M.A. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2000 APPROVED: Ronald E. Marcello, Major Professor and Chair Donald K. Pickens, Committee Member Randolph B. Campbell, Committee Member Alexandra Leavell, Committee Member Elizabeth Esterchild, Committee Member Richard M. Golden, Chair of the Department of History C. Neal Tate, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Strickland, Kristi Throne, The Significance and Impact of Women on the Rise of the Republican Party in Twentieth Century Texas. Doctor of Philosophy (History), August, 2000, 267 pp., references, 180 titles. During the early twentieth century, the Democratic party dominated the conservative political landscape of Texas. Through the 1920s, members of the Republican party focused on patronage and seemed content to maintain the position of minority party. A growing dissatisfaction with the liberal policies of the New Deal during the 1930s created opportunities for state Republicans to woo dissenting Democrats to their side. With a change of leadership within the state GOP after 1950, the Republicans waged serious campaigns for offices for the first time. Republican men exercised their political yearnings through leadership positions. Women, on the other hand, were shut out of the leadership ranks, and, as a consequence, they chose a traditional female strategy. They organized clubs in order to support the new leadership and rising candidates. Against formidable odds, Republican women acted as foot soldiers and worked diligently to attain their objectives.

  • Choking on Statutes Revisited: a History of Legislative Preemption of Common Law Regarding Child Custody
    Choking on Statutes Revisited: A History of Legislative Preemption of Common Law Regarding Child Custody JOHN J. SAMPSON* I. Introduction In 1982, Professor (later Dean, and still later Judge) Guido Calabresi, published a book entitled A Common Law for the Age of Statutes.' The book deservedly achieved wide recognition in the academic world, netting 1,253 citations in a recent Westlaw search.2 Surprisingly, acceptance by the intended audience, i.e., the judiciary, was significantly more muted- only nineteen citations of the book could be found in a similar Westlaw search of state appellate decisions, and another search found twenty-four federal court citations.' The theme of the book is that the common law had been largely supplanted by "statutorification," for which a remedy is needed, especially because statutes often become obsolete over time. Judge Calabresi's goals for the 319 pages of closely reasoned argument are captured in the first paragraphs of the first chapter, engagingly titled "Choking on Statutes." The last fifty to eighty years have seen a fundamental change in American law. In this time we have gone from a legal system dominated by the common law, divined by courts, to one in which statutes, enacted by legislatures, have * William Benjamin Wynne Professor of Law, The University of Texas School of Law, and Family Law Quarterly Board of Editors. 1.

  • Bentsen Joins Reagan's Ten Washington, Austin Sen
    TI1E p1/4 June 12, 1981 A Journal of Free Voices 75 On a 3-Year Tax Cut Bentsen Joins Reagan's Ten Washington, Austin Sen. Lloyd Bentsen, the Texas Democrat, went over to Pres- ident Reagan's three-year tax cut by appearing at a media event in the Rose Garden as Reagan announced the program by which he means to ride rough-shod over Democratic advocacy of cuts that help low- and moderate-income people. Meanwhile, Rep. Kent Hance, a Democrat from Lubbock, announced he will co-sponsor Reagan's tax bill, much as. Democrat Phil Gramm of College Station co-sponsored Reagan's budget-slashing bill. House Majority Leader Jim Wright of Fort Worth, asked if he was fighting a losing battle as Demodrats announced they would vote for Reagan's tax cut, replied, "Perhaps." Bentsen's defection, compounding his voting with Reagan's budget cuts three times as often as not (see last issue), was especially startling. Former chairman of the Joint Economic Committee of the Congress, 1976 candidate for the Democrats' presidential nomination, Bentsen is up for re-election in 1982. By swinging over to Reagan's tax cut he was taking his basic position before the Texas electorate for next year. Bentsen, Hance, and Sen. David Boren of Oklahoma were the only three Democrats among the ten members of Congress in the Rose Garden showing support for the Reagan bill. Reagan called the ten, including Bentsen, "the leaders of a new biparti- san coalition we are forging. ." In the House, members of the 47-member Conservative Democratic Forum showed signs of going along.
