William Jennings Bryan Dorn was not a great man, but he was a great representative in all senses of the word (including U.S. congressman) for the middling class of millhands, small time farmers, small town businessmen, educators, and career military people who peopled his rural and small town third congressional district in the red hills of South Carolina. More, he was truly representative of the people, the Lincolnian phrase he adapted usefully to his political service in office from 1946 to 1975 and behind the scenes from 1976 to his declining years of the twenty-first century. He was the last orator for the hundreds of thousands of millhands, the textile workers, and those who relied on the factory floor workers, not only in his state but also in Georgia and North Carolina. Dorn responded to his own people, and they showed themselves to be ready for genuine racial integration, genuine opportunities for women, a good and a sound education (to include the teaching of evolution).
