  • Chapter One: Postwar Resentment and the Invention of Middle America 10
    MIAMI UNIVERSITY The Graduate School Certificate for Approving the Dissertation We hereby approve the Dissertation of Jeffrey Christopher Bickerstaff Doctor of Philosophy ________________________________________ Timothy Melley, Director ________________________________________ C. Barry Chabot, Reader ________________________________________ Whitney Womack Smith, Reader ________________________________________ Marguerite S. Shaffer, Graduate School Representative ABSTRACT TALES FROM THE SILENT MAJORITY: CONSERVATIVE POPULISM AND THE INVENTION OF MIDDLE AMERICA by Jeffrey Christopher Bickerstaff In this dissertation I show how the conservative movement lured the white working class out of the Democratic New Deal Coalition and into the Republican Majority. I argue that this political transformation was accomplished in part by what I call the "invention" of Middle America. Using such cultural representations as mainstream print media, literature, and film, conservatives successfully exploited what came to be known as the Social Issue and constructed "Liberalism" as effeminate, impractical, and elitist. Chapter One charts the rise of conservative populism and Middle America against the backdrop of 1960s social upheaval. I stress the importance of backlash and resentment to Richard Nixon's ascendancy to the Presidency, describe strategies employed by the conservative movement to win majority status for the GOP, and explore the conflict between this goal and the will to ideological purity. In Chapter Two I read Rabbit Redux as John Updike's attempt to model the racial education of a conservative Middle American, Harry "Rabbit" Angstrom, in "teach-in" scenes that reflect the conflict between the social conservative and Eastern Liberal within the author's psyche. I conclude that this conflict undermines the project and, despite laudable intentions, Updike perpetuates caricatures of the Left and hastens Middle America's rejection of Liberalism.

DESCRIPTORS *Archives; *Authors; *Females; Modern History; Presidents of the United States; Primary Sources; Resource Materials; Social History; *United States History IDENTIFIERS *First Ladies (United States); *Personal Writing; Public Records; Social Power; Twentieth Century; Womens History ABSTRACT This collection of essays about the Presidential wives of the 20th century through Nancy Reagan. An exploration of the records of first ladies will elicit diverse insights about the historical impact of these women in their times. Interpretive theories that explain modern first ladies are still tentative and exploratory. The contention in the essays, however, is that whatever direction historical writing on presidential wives may follow, there is little question that the future role of first ladies is more likely to expand than to recede to the days of relatively silent and passive helpmates. Following a foreword and an introduction, essays in the collection and their authors are, as follows: "Meeting a New Century: The Papers of Four Twentieth-Century First Ladies" (Mary M.

LXVIII NO. 99 STORRS, CONNECTICUT Monday, April 19, 1971 sen. muskie: 'here to challenge policies9 By CATHY CONNOR The motor of a light plane droned over some 18,000 people gathered on the steps of the Rhode Island State House In Pro- vidence, Sunday, trailing a banner reading "YAF says 'Why Support Hanoi?' ■ Below, cars became littered wits green paper* that said, "Your wind- shield has been washed courtesy of the R.I. Federation of College Republicans. Now that you can see more clearly, we hope that you will join President Nixon In working for a full generation of peace." The bi-partisan "Dump Nixon" rally sponsored by Citizens for Alternatives Now, drew speakers and entertainers from all over the country including three prospective presidential candidates. Sen. Edmund S. Muskle, D-Malne, told blanketed, shivering crowds, "We are here to challenge policies, not person- alities — to seek solutions, not scape- goats." Rep. Paul N. McClosky, R-Cal., has pledged "to fight President Nixon in the primaries if Nixon doesn't move to end the war," and Sen. Birch Bayh, D-Ind. told the crown the nation 'can- not afford four more years of the bank- rupt policies of Richard Nixon." Muskle drew the loudest reaction from the crowd when he said that If America wants its problems solved, "then It must vote this administration out of office in 1972." He told the rain- soaked crowd that the single purpose of the rally was "to demonstrate our faith that the people's will can still determine our country's course." "We are here to restore moral leadership to our country," he said.
