Democrats' Horrible Racist Past..... Pin tale on the Donkey

[_Brackite]

Of course, he doesn't want to talk about the Republicans' horrible racial present...

I don't really agree with that statement, but Republicans in a few States need to stop it with the strict voter I.D. laws.

I've recently been reading the four volume bio of LBJ by Caro (sorry no youtube ldsfaqs, just words) and it's been rather illuminating about the Democratic party's internal strife during the 1940s-60s. The Southern Dixiecrats along with numerous mid western and western Republican senators held civil rights back for nearly 30 years until the first civil rights law, albeit a weak one, was pushed through the Senate for the first time in 1957 with LBJ's help. Southern Dixiecrats totally shifted away from the Democratic party beginning with the Goldwater election in 1964 after LBJ basically betrayed their racist ideals.

Interestingly the Democrats had a civil rights plank forced into their campaign platform by northern Democratic liberals way back in 1948 by liberals like Hubert Humphrey long before the Civil Rights Act was passed in 1964 (this led to the 1948 campaign of Strom Thurmond in 1948). They just never could get any traction against the Senate which was controlled at that time by the Southern senators for various reasons.

I agree that not all Republicans are racists. Only one of the Republicans I am personally acquainted with could justly be accused of racism (that one is so extreme that he would favor denying the vote not only to non-whites, but anyone not born in the USA), but it still seems true that there is a stubborn racist streak in the extreme fundamentalist right wing core that has gained too much undue influence and power within Republican ranks.

But...he was hoping for movie night.

Democrats do have a horrible racist past. It's a shame that the southern social conservatives and those with similar beliefs that drove the Democrats' racist past gradually became Republicans and corroded that party with their still ridiculous and harmful beliefs.

As recently as the last presidential election, about half of Mississippi Republicans wanted to make interracial marriage illegal. If only we could convince these people to exist in an ineffectual third party. Sadly, people like ldsfaqs are attracted to the Republican party at the moment.

And you only prove you're not a conservative, etc., as you've tried to claim to me, by this obvious lie.

And tons of Southern Democrats when Hilary was against Obama didn't want to vote for the black man, but Hilary instead.
And it's all on video.....
So, your poll doesn't prove a thing..... The "South" is not the Republican Party, and NEVER has been idiot.
Just because a few more southerners are now Republican than of the past, doesn't somehow make 90% of the rest of the NEVER RACIST Republicans all of a sudden Republican. The South is the South idiot.

Further, I notice they didn't poll "White Democrats" of Mississipi.
I bet you just as many would say the same thing.

Further, I notice a liberal group conducted the poll..... But you anything they manipulated the questions in such a way to fool people just to try to make this claim. I've seen liberals do it all the time with polls.

Even further, another flaw in your argument is that you ignore that they show that 77% of the ENTIRE country approved of Interracial marriage, and only 17% disapproved....
So, that little FACT right there disproves your "Republicans are racist" claim.
You cherry pick some data and then make a false claim from it, like you anti-mormons and liberals always do.
A cherry pick which is likely not even reliable due to poor questions in the first place.

Another thing..... 46% said no, and 40% said yes, interracial marriage is fine.
That there are "racists" in the South is no surprise..... You have ZERO proof that it's ONLY Republicans in the south that have the racists.
In fact, there is plenty of proof that there are many in both party's in the south.

Of course, it's possible..... But again, Southern values and ideology is not and NEVER has been Republican Ideology. (and one issue, nor some religious values does not make us equal, any more than it would make republicans equal to liberals because we sometimes have the same values and ideology's, so don't bring up your stupid lying cherry pick of 'state rights')

For your case to be valid..... You need to prove that.... and you can't. You instead cherry pick an exception and claim it's the RULE.
It's not, and never has been.

Your "party switching" bull donkey is also still a lie.....
Al Gore his KKK Father, Robert Bird the Grand Wizard and 100's of other leaders are STILL Democrats of the South. They didn't become Republicans (almost ZERO did)
Most of them also also STILL led by democrats. There are very few Republican Leaders in the South.

There is no such thing..... That's all liberal lying propaganda to keep the liberal voter a victim, looking for a bad guy to blame for their problems, etc.

I've seen maybe "1" racist Republican out of 100,000.
I've seen far more blacks that are racist however.

Show me even one racist word in that video fool....

Well, at least this guy is on the same page with LDSfaqs.

You only demonstrate yourself the TRUE BIGOT.....
I nor 99.9% of any other conservative has ever uttered a word in common with the bad of that racist.
But, I know you people don't like truth, just slander and bigotry..... because you are the true bigots, and bully's.

Why can the government force people to have an ID to get Welfare, but force them to have one to Vote, so as to prevent the common Democrat fraud of multiple voting, preventing non-citizens from voting, etc.?

Do you really think people should vote more than once and also for people not living in this country to come here and thus influence an election by voting?

Stop believing the liberal lie that it's about "racism". It has ZERO to do with racism.
Again, note how liberals have to LIE in order to fool people in voting and supporting their way.
They have to call people racist for simply wanting the LAW to be followed and enforced and to preserve the Voting system.

Clearly you didn't watch the video because it debunks some of what you just said.
You should read better books, because LBJ was not a good man when it concerns race......

Lyndon Baines Johnson 1963...

"These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we've got to do something about this, we've got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference... I'll have them niggers voting Democratic for the next two hundred years".

I've been to MANY Republican meetings, gatherings, etc.....
NEVER seen a SINGLE racist.....

So, clearly you don't know what you're talking about.
Of course, I've seen racists from all sides at some point in life, but the Republican party isn't even a bastion of racism as you believe.
Far more racism come from blacks, even though they are a small part of the population.
Republican Values are EXACTLY the same as they've always been since the party of founded and solidified those and it's values over the next years.
So, the kind of person that claims we are somehow "now" racist..... is a complete moron, an immoral one at that.

It's the liberal lying propaganda machine that claims these things of Republicans.
