Jessie Welch Jenkins
Mrs. Jessie Welch Jenkins (born ca. 1894) was the president of the National Patrick Henry Organization of Columbus, Georgia. She was the author of the book America Re-born. The book had an anti-Jewish thesis and leaned heavily upon the Protocols. In the early 1950s she founded The Liberty Party.[1] In 1952 the party supported Californian George D. Higgins for President of the United States.
In 1950 Mrs. Jenkins ran for Governor of Georgia. In that election she published a booklet outlining her platform for the governor’s race titled Your Pocket Atom Bomb.[2]
