Biography
American lawyer who served as a Louisiana state district court judge from 1961 to 1966 in St. Francisville, Louisiana, the seat of West Feliciana Parish, and as a Democratic U.S. representative from the Sixth Congressional District from 1967 to 1975. A staunch conservative, he frequently quarrelled with his party's increasingly liberal philosophy and leadership. In 1980, he sought the presidency as the nominee of the former American Independent Party, founded in 1968 by George C. Wallace of Alabama.
Rarick died of cancer at his St. Francisville home at 9:20 p.m. on 14 September 2009.
