Alabama has the right to continue policies of racial segregation.

Explanation:

Wallace was the Governor of Alabama during the Selma movement which was a civil rights movement that supported Afro American voting rights. At the time of the movement only 1% of voters were colored even through the half of the population of the area was colored. Wallace ordered action against the movement and took a hard stance on segregation between white and colored people. Hence, the statement that Alabama has the right to continue policies of racial segregation is the closest to what Wallace could have said during a speech.
