While Governor, an amendment was proposed to enact a prohibition on alcohol. He opposed the amendment. His exact words:

quote:

No government ever succeeded in changing the moral convictions of its subjects by force.


The amendment failed by over 90,000 votes.

This PRE-DATES his time as the A&M President.

might be salient but it's certainly not accurate

I may disagree with the idea that you can’t enforce morals via legislation, but I do agree you can’t implant the morals themselves.

He’s still flipping footballs errantly over the heads of A&M receivers.

I only mean the above about his talent as a QB at a D1 school and not his character.
