yes, as I stated, without the Republicans the democrats never ever would of passed the civil rights acts of any year.
Too many Democrats were simply, members of the KKK, like Robert Byrd of West Virginia. Others may not of been members but that was simply for political reasons.
As we can see, the Democrat senate did not have enough votes to pass the bill. Not in the House nor the Senate.
Thank you Republicans, who showed America that Democrats were definately the party of racists.
