Duke's approach has an enormous appeal -- despite an unsavory past that he now writes off as a "wrong attitude." A swastika-brandishing neo-Nazi in college, he joined the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan in high school and worked himself up to the exalted rank of grand wizard before leaving the organization in 1979. Soon after, he founded a white supremacist group called the National Association for the Advancement of White People. The divorced father of two teenage daughters, Duke held no regular job before his election to the state legislature. He has supported himself as a seller...
...first this seems unbelievable. Duke is an avowed racist. He talks about white power. He's a neo-Nazi, for God's sake. So how did he persuade 44 percent of Louisiana's voting population (and, according to The Post, 60 percent of the white electorate) to vote for him last year in a failed bid for the U.S. Senate...

Librarians blocked her research; the limit of confidentiality on documents was suspiciously extended from 30 years to 50. When her phone wasn't jangling with anonymous insults ("Jewish whore!"), neo-Nazi louts were tossing bombs into her bedroom. Official Passau saw her as das schreckliche Madchen, a troublemaker in a skirt. But Anja was determined not to be nice. It takes a nasty girl to go after the Nazi boys...
...taking aim at Metzger, 52, and his son John, 22, Dees is trying to cripple an admitted "racial separatist" and leader of a neo-Nazi movement known as the White Aryan Resistance (WAR). Dees, director of the Southern Poverty Law Center in Montgomery, was using an unusual weapon: the common-law principle of "vicarious liability," most frequently invoked against employers for their workers' negligence. Simply put, Dees and his fellow lawyers sue national racist organizations on behalf of the families of victims of violent acts, charging that the organizations should incur heavy civil penalties for their indirect role...
