Strom Thurmond was the only dem to switch over to the republican party at that time .....there me have been a couple of other racist dems that switched over with him but the vast majority of the racists stayed in the communist dem party ./——/ You forgot this part. DemocRATs filibustered the CRA and VRA led by Al Gore Sr. Republicans broke the stalemate to get them passed.The south supported slaverydems supported slavery ! dems enforced jim crow ! and the majority of dems in congress were against the civil rights act !yep ! the democrats have a long history of mistreating blacks !
Why lie? Unless your head is so far up your ass you know that the Democratic Party, beginning with Truman/s integration with our military, followed by LBJ's Civil Rights Act, Affirmative Action and recent effort to provide gay and lesbian citizens the right to marry (but not to have their wedding cake made, or their flag posted in US Embassy's - all the result of the new attacks on blacks, gays and women, gay and straight, Muslims, Mexican and Central Americans by the Republican Party).
The south enforced Jim Crow both Democrats and Republicans
A Democrat signed the civil rights act
…...and who led the charge in that filibuster? Strom Thurmond, that great Republican Senator from SC.
