Republicans refuse to recognize that Old Abe was against slavery and black people mingling in society.
Wrong. American history has excluded a lot of things so ignorant white trash like you can pretend that whites have done so much more than anyone else.its bad with the blacks . their the ones complaining. history is history can not be changed. even if more white;s did things in history then blacks. it is what it is.History has long been whitewashed by europeans desperately trying to convince the world they are great. The inferiority complex thing is bad with them.The Bunker Hill Monument marks the site of one of the first major battles of the American Revolution. A Battle in which inexperienced colonial forces fought against a highly trained army of British soldiers. Less well-known is the story of the significant role played by the more than 100 African American and Native American soldiers who took part in the battle. To examine the roles of these “patriots of color” in the Revolution is to discover the complexities of the revolutionary period as well as the diversity of its participants, their motivations, and their perspectives.Thanks for proving my point. Hate to break it to you, but you were never a slave, so stop pretending you ever were one.Lol! The gaslighting begins. Bitch, we've been celebrating Juneteenth for years. With whites. So just fsace the truth, in fact let me hep you with a few words from a black republican:Now this is your Black Independence Day, when whites informed some negroes they were free. You don’t have to celebrate July 4th Independence Day as that is a white holiday now.This is all good but what will this actually do? I already celebrated Juneteenth without the approval of whites. Its not going to reverse the affects of centuries of slavery or the decades of systemic racism Black people have endured in this country. Is it just another "starting point"? If so a starting point for what?The Southern Democrats or Grant the Union general? Both of those had slaves.We should always remember the lengths the democrat party went to to keep their black slaves
Just remember this. Today it's 14 Republicans who voted against black people.
The House overwhelmingly passed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act on Wednesday by a vote of 415 to 14, sending the legislation to President Joe Biden’s desk and putting the nation on the cusp of establishing a federal holiday marking the end of slavery.
If signed by Biden, the day will be the first new national holiday since Martin Luther King Jr. Day was established in 1983.
Isn’t segregated holidays what you all wanted?
“What to the American slave is your Fourth of July? I answer, a day that reveals to him more than all other days of the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mock; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade and solemnity, are to him mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy - a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation of the earth guilty of practices more shocking and bloody than are the people of these United States at this very hour.”Tim Scott never would have had the courage to stand before a crowd of white republicans and say this.
Frederick Douglas
We declared and fought for independence from Britain. We couldn’t free slaves because your friends, the Democrats, never would had joined the fight for independence. So that battle was fought just a generation later, fought by white men of course.
But the slaves loved it here in America, so they stayed. The embraced the superior culture of White America, as do their descendants who continue to choose to stay.
You stupid uneducated Moon Bats don't know any more about History than you know about Economics, Climate Science, Biology, Ethics or the Constitution.
Does it matter? Does it matter who did what? Does it matter that the dates may be wrong?
Slavery was an abomination. Celebrating the end of that institution in this country should be a no brainer.
Are you truly this obtuse???
This is nothing more than dividing America in a trashy search for votes.
"...what would happen if a smaller percentage of blacks turned out:
- At 90 percent black turn-out, Wisconsin’s 10 electoral votes slide into the GOP column.
- At 75 percent black turn-out, Pennsylvania’s 21 electoral votes go Republican.
- At 70 percent Michigan’s 17 electoral votes turn from blue to red.
- At 50 percent the GOP collects Delawre’s three electoral votes.
I don’t know what a realistic number to project is for the effects of angry black apathy, but I’ll stop at 50 percent. It may be that going as low as 75 percent is unrealistic. Most likely it’s impossible to say. (And this doesn’t take into account things like congressional districts where black voters make the margin of difference.)"
Do Democrats need the black vote? | RobertEmmet
But what exactly would that mean? In how many states do black voters make the difference? I ran some rough numbers over at Robert Emmet -- check them out. Depending on how much of a drop-off you assume, it could cost the Democrats 10 to 76 electoral votes.
The Democrats and the Black Vote
Were the superdelegates to nominate Clinton, despite Obama gaining a plurality among the pledged delegates, they would run the risk of alienating black voters in November.
Democrats are heavily dependent on the black vote. That’s an opportunity for the GOP.
The black vote has become important enough to the Democratic party that a small drop in support could make a big difference.in the 1992 election, 13 percent of the Democratic vote came from black voters. In 2014, it was 23 percent.
That's the overall trend. On a state-by-state basis -- which is much more important in presidential politics -- it's more complex.
If there'd been a one-point swing from Obama to McCain in North Carolina in 2008, McCain would have won the state. And if the black vote in Florida and Ohio in 2012 had been as strong for the Republicans as it was in 2004 -- in the pre-Obama era -- Romney would have won both." https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...-black-vote-thats-an-opportunity-for-the-gop/
Jeez people, is it really so hard to celebrate the end of slavery? Forget the convoluted way we got there, or the accuracy of the dates. Just take a moment to celebrate that we no longer allow humans to be owned like livestock.
Memo that to the Democrat Party, the one that began a war to maintain slavery....and wait for the apology.
Yes, the democrats were largely responsible for it.
But all this gnashing of teeth about a holiday to commemorate the end of slavery doesn't seem like democrats.
And, regardless of the political party, ending slavery was an event worth having a holiday for.
It is so disappointing that you don't comprehend the reason for pretending that there are two independence days.
For almost 100 years a significant portion of our population was not independent. I am not saying there should be two independence days. How about we have a holiday to celebrate our independence AND a day to celebrate the end of the practice of legally owning people as if they were livestock?
This has nothing to do with slavery.
If it did, the word "Republican" would be prominent in the 'celebration.'
Wise up.
They WERE Dixiecrats but today they are simply REPUBLICANS.Don't forget those "democrats" back then would be Republicans today. In fact, they'd be the 14 Republicans who voted against Juneteenth being a national holiday. Why would Republicans mind making it a holiday but us Democrats all voted in favor of it?Thanks for proving my point. Hate to break it to you, but you were never a slave, so stop pretending you ever were one.Lol! The gaslighting begins. Bitch, we've been celebrating Juneteenth for years. With whites.

Yes, Democrats were the racists back in the 1950's but you are today's racists. Remember Trump said there were a lot of very fine people at a KKK rally? They were all Republicans. Don't forget that.
"Don't forget those "democrats" back then would be Republicans today."
Of course, that's false. You Democrats lie about everything.
they were Dixiecrats......not Dixiecans.
And like Wallace, went right back to voting Democrat.
“…if you take race out of the picture, it’s likely that white Southerners would have switched parties earlier and in greater numbers. “
Unable to comprehend that Southern Americans are not the racists that the Democrats are, they had to find some explanation for their ancient base, the South, turning to vote Republican. Sooo….they claimed that Nixon campaigned as a racist to gain the Deep South, to win over the Dixiecrats and segregationists to the Republican fold.
Of course, problem #1 is that the Democrats cannot provide a single example of an explicitly racist pitch in the campaign. There never was one.
“The two biggest issues in the 1968 campaign were the Vietnam War…and the anti-war movement….
Nixon campaigned on a strong anti-communist, law and order platform. While embracing the welfare state- Nixon was no conservative on domestic issues- he also railed against what he termed ‘the excesses of bleeding heart liberalism.’”
"Death Of A Nation,” Dinesh D’Souza, p. 203
”Liberal neurotic obsession with this apocryphal notion- (that Southern Strategy) it’s been cited hundreds of times in the NYTimes- is supposed to explain why Democrats can’t get nice churchgoing, patriotic southerners to vote for the party of antiwar protesters, abortion, the ACLU and gay marriage.
They tell themselves it’s because they won’t stoop to pander to a bunch of racists. This slander should probably be the first clue as to why southerners don’t like them.
The central premise of this folklore is that anyone who votes Republican is a racist. Pretty sophisticated thinking.”
Coulter, Mugged
This was Nixon’s “silent majority,” the ordinary Americans whom Nixon said worked hard and played by the rules and didn’t complain or set fire to anything and, precisely for this reason, had been ignored and even reviled by the Democratic Party.”
The Switch That Never Happened: How the South Really Went GOP - American Greatness
Soooo....what happened to the Southern voter?
They behaved as good Americans, refused to support racist Democrats, and the racist voters aged out....and died.
Rectitude and Republicans won out.
That's why 14 Republicans voted against Juneteenth. No Democrats voted against it. If you Republicans aren't today's racists you're doing a piss poor job showing blacks this. It's because you're lying.
A lie.
You voted for the racism party, the one that celebrated life-long racist Bill Clinton.
Here is a recent Democrat/Liberal President, and his life-long racism.
a. Governor Clinton was among three state officials the NAACP sued in 1989 under the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965. “Plaintiffs offered plenty of proof of monolithic voting along racial lines, intimidation of black voters and candidates and other official acts that made voting harder for blacks,” the Arkansas Gazette reported December 6, 1989.
b. Bill Clinton had a Confederate flag-like issue, every year he was governor: 1979-1992 Arkansas Code Annotated, Section 1-5-107, provides as follows:
(a) The Saturday immediately preceding Easter Sunday of each year is designated as ‘Confederate Flag Day’ in this state.
(b) No person, firm, or corporation shall display an Confederate flag or replica thereof in connection with any advertisement of any commercial enterprise, or in any manner for any purpose except to honor the Confederate States of America. [Emphasis added.]
(c) Any person, firm, or corporation violating the provisions of this section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be fined not less than one hundred dollars ($100) nor more than one thousand dollars ($1,000).
Bill Clinton took no steps during his twelve years as governor to repeal this law.

This blogpost now has sound…** Listen Here ** Here is a photo from Confederate Flag Day in Arkansas…State Capital in Little Rock, Arkansas, April 15, 2006. Yesterday, Hillary Clinton argued that South Carolina should remove the Confederate Flag from its statehouse grounds: “I think about how...
[Let's Stop Pretending the Confederate Flag Isn't a Symbol of RacismJust to refresh everyone's memories, we're talking about the official national flag that was used to represent the Confederate States of America during the Civil War. You know, that awkward time period when the South was vehemently fighting to keep slavery around as a means of economic prosperity for white plantation owners.
I've heard arguments time and again about how the Confederate flag is no longer representative of slavery, and how it's now indicative of "Southern pride and heritage." But I'm really over the whole "respect your heritage" mantra, especially when your heritage is hate.

Gee....'til 1992,....
- Governor Clinton invited Orval Faubus to his inauguration and they exchanged an almost South American abrazo, embrace, http://www.booknotes.org/Watch/72551-1/Paul+Greenberg.aspx
- Clinton’s mentor was J. William Fulbright, a vehement foe of integration who had voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Orval Eugene Faubus, attended Bill Clinton’s 1979 gubernatorial inauguration, where the two pols hugged, as Arkansas Democrat-Gazette editorial page editor Paul Greenberg recalls.)
Know who Faubus was?
Yup...he used the National Guard to prevent blacks from going to school
c. Bill Clinton wrote his first letter, dated June 21, 1994, of congratulations to the UDC [Untied Daughters of the Confederacy] celebrating their 100th anniversary. Later Clinton wrote a letter September 8, 1994 letter of congratulation to the Georgia Division of the UDC celebrating their 100th anniversary, then August 9, 1995 welcoming to Washington, D.C. for their 1995 national convention. Each letter was given a full page with Clinton’s picture in the United Daughters of the Confederacy Magazine (UDC Magazine) giving legitimacy to the UDC.
For reference, the UDC magazine includes " a Ku Klux Klan praising book, not just the Klan of Reconstruction but the Klan of the 1920s, a book which recommends the racist books of Thomas Dixon, “The Clansman” ...

Gee....that's 18 years ago....
d. "Clinton praised Arkansas’ late Democratic senator J. William Fulbright, a notorious segregationist who opposed the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the 1965 Voting Rights Act. He also signed the Southern Manifesto, which denounced the U.S. Supreme Court’s landmark Brown vs. Board of Education school desegregation decision in 1954. Clinton called Fulbright “My mentor, a visionary, a humanitarian.”Dems Need to Houseclean - Deroy Murdock - National Review Online
and....
Fulbright was a full-bore segregationist, voting against the 1957, 1960, 1964, and 1965 civil rights bills.
But...in 1993, Bill Clinton gave the Medal of Freedom award to a lifelong segregationist, Democrat Wm. J. Fulbright. And another life-long segregationist, Democrat Albert Gore, Sr. was in attendance.
20 years ago.
Hey...didn't Bill Clinton just recently speak at the Democrat National Convention?
2012.
That wasn't "50 or 100" years ago....was it?

White women benefit most from affirmative action — and are among its fiercest opponents
The willingness to erase white women from the story of affirmative action is part of the problem.
www.vox.com
And despite this you idiot women voted for Trump not Hillary?
The only reason I want to do away with Affirmative Action is so that it fucks all the white women who vote GOP.
Yet, today, every one of you Republicans is a racist treasonous reprobate!Texas con-servatives who were in the Democrat party at that time. After LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act, they all ran to the GOP....much more compatable for racist con-servatives by then.We should always remember the lengths the democrat party went to to keep their black slaves
Prior to 1957, LBJ “had never supported civil rights legislation- any civil rights legislation. In the Senate and House alike, his record was an unbroken one of votes against every civil rights bill that had ever come to a vote: against voting rights bills; against bills that would have struck at job discrimination and at segregation in other areas of American life; even against bills that would have protected blacks from lynching.”
Robert Caro, “Master of the Senate: The Years of Lyndon Johnson, vol.3,” p. xv.
Isn't history fascinating?
It's time you learned some history.....
I looked at the 2 Parties today, and voted for the one NOT dominated by a psychotic orange narcissist, populated by hordes of confused violent arrested-adolescent incels, and not dedicated to treasonous insurrection! Wow, that was easy...Republicans authored and proposed the Corwin Amendment which would have made slavery constitutional. It passed congress but never got ratified. So republicans need to stop that disingenuous democrat slavery shit.
Which party ended slavery, and which party started a war to keep slavery?
Take your time.
Oh.....and which one do you vote for?
"....populated by hordes of confused violent arrested-adolescent incels, and not dedicated to treasonous insurrection! Wow, that was easy..."
Let's check:
“Jaw-Dropping: Police Chief Association Releases Number of Officers Injured During Violent Riots
The Major Cities Chiefs Association released a report detailing the number of violent riots and the number of police officers injured during the riots U.S. cities faced after the death of George Floyd in May.The MCCA, which has members in 69 of the largest cities in the U.S., released the findings of their survey in October and compiled data from May 25 to July 31, 2020. In total, 8,700 protests took place in major American cities during that time period.Of the 8,700 protests, 574 of them were riots that saw mass looting and destruction.
During the riots cities experienced, the MCCA said their survey found at least 2,000 police officers were injured:
"In cities where violence did occur, assaults on police officers, looting, and arson were the most common criminal activities. Approximately, 72% of major city law enforcement agencies had officers harmed during the protests. This included nearly every agency that experienced at least one violent protest. In total, over the course of the civil unrest from May to July, more than 2,000 officers sustained injuries in the line of duty. One agency reported 50 officers being injured in a single week of protests. Another agency reported that 462 of their officers were injured during the protests in their jurisdiction.
"Looting was also a common occurrence (2,385 instances), with 62% of major city law enforcement agencies indicating that at least one incident of looting occurred in their cities. “
Every single one due to Biden voters.
Riots, arson, anarchism, assaults, lawlessness rewarded, neither lives nor property safe.....under Democrat governance.
One wonders why citizens pay taxes, and what they expect from government, when the above is the norm from Democrats officials.
That's what it took back then to win in the south. Remember he was a Democrat in the South. It's very hard to be a Democrat in the south. You have to woo white racists.

They tell themselves it’s because they won’t stoop to pander to a bunch of racists. This slander should probably be the first clue as to why southerners don’t like them.
The central premise of this folklore is that anyone who votes Republican is a racist. Pretty sophisticated thinking.”

The Switch That Never Happened: How the South Really Went GOP - American Greatness
Soooo....what happened to the Southern voter?
They behaved as good Americans, refused to support racist Democrats, and the racist voters aged out....and died.
Rectitude and Republicans won out.
That's why 14 Republicans voted against Juneteenth. No Democrats voted against it. If you Republicans aren't today's racists you're doing a piss poor job showing blacks this. It's because you're lying.
A lie.
You voted for the racism party, the one that celebrated life-long racist Bill Clinton.
Here is a recent Democrat/Liberal President, and his life-long racism.
a. Governor Clinton was among three state officials the NAACP sued in 1989 under the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965. “Plaintiffs offered plenty of proof of monolithic voting along racial lines, intimidation of black voters and candidates and other official acts that made voting harder for blacks,” the Arkansas Gazette reported December 6, 1989.
b. Bill Clinton had a Confederate flag-like issue, every year he was governor: 1979-1992 Arkansas Code Annotated, Section 1-5-107, provides as follows:
(a) The Saturday immediately preceding Easter Sunday of each year is designated as ‘Confederate Flag Day’ in this state.
(b) No person, firm, or corporation shall display an Confederate flag or replica thereof in connection with any advertisement of any commercial enterprise, or in any manner for any purpose except to honor the Confederate States of America. [Emphasis added.]
(c) Any person, firm, or corporation violating the provisions of this section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be fined not less than one hundred dollars ($100) nor more than one thousand dollars ($1,000).
Bill Clinton took no steps during his twelve years as governor to repeal this law.

[Let's Stop Pretending the Confederate Flag Isn't a Symbol of RacismJust to refresh everyone's memories, we're talking about the official national flag that was used to represent the Confederate States of America during the Civil War. You know, that awkward time period when the South was vehemently fighting to keep slavery around as a means of economic prosperity for white plantation owners.
I've heard arguments time and again about how the Confederate flag is no longer representative of slavery, and how it's now indicative of "Southern pride and heritage." But I'm really over the whole "respect your heritage" mantra, especially when your heritage is hate.

Gee....'til 1992,....
Governor Orval Faubus, progressive New Deal Democrat, blocked the schoolhouse door to the Little Rock Central High School with the state’s National Guard rather than allow nine black students to attend.
- Governor Clinton invited Orval Faubus to his inauguration and they exchanged an almost South American abrazo, embrace, http://www.booknotes.org/Watch/72551-1/Paul+Greenberg.aspx
- Clinton’s mentor was J. William Fulbright, a vehement foe of integration who had voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Orval Eugene Faubus, attended Bill Clinton’s 1979 gubernatorial inauguration, where the two pols hugged, as Arkansas Democrat-Gazette editorial page editor Paul Greenberg recalls.)
Know who Faubus was?
Yup...he used the National Guard to prevent blacks from going to school
c. Bill Clinton wrote his first letter, dated June 21, 1994, of congratulations to the UDC [Untied Daughters of the Confederacy] celebrating their 100th anniversary. Later Clinton wrote a letter September 8, 1994 letter of congratulation to the Georgia Division of the UDC celebrating their 100th anniversary, then August 9, 1995 welcoming to Washington, D.C. for their 1995 national convention. Each letter was given a full page with Clinton’s picture in the United Daughters of the Confederacy Magazine (UDC Magazine) giving legitimacy to the UDC.
For reference, the UDC magazine includes " a Ku Klux Klan praising book, not just the Klan of Reconstruction but the Klan of the 1920s, a book which recommends the racist books of Thomas Dixon, “The Clansman” ...

Did I just wipe up the floor with you, or what.
It's funny you Republicans ended slavery but then today you are the ones who attend Klan rallies and Trump defends the KKK on national TV.Don't forget those "democrats" back then would be Republicans today. In fact, they'd be the 14 Republicans who voted against Juneteenth being a national holiday. Why would Republicans mind making it a holiday but us Democrats all voted in favor of it?Thanks for proving my point. Hate to break it to you, but you were never a slave, so stop pretending you ever were one.Lol! The gaslighting begins. Bitch, we've been celebrating Juneteenth for years. With whites. So just fsace the truth, in fact let me hep you with a few words from a black republican:Now this is your Black Independence Day, when whites informed some negroes they were free. You don’t have to celebrate July 4th Independence Day as that is a white holiday now.This is all good but what will this actually do? I already celebrated Juneteenth without the approval of whites. Its not going to reverse the affects of centuries of slavery or the decades of systemic racism Black people have endured in this country. Is it just another "starting point"? If so a starting point for what?The Southern Democrats or Grant the Union general? Both of those had slaves.We should always remember the lengths the democrat party went to to keep their black slaves
Just remember this. Today it's 14 Republicans who voted against black people.
The House overwhelmingly passed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act on Wednesday by a vote of 415 to 14, sending the legislation to President Joe Biden’s desk and putting the nation on the cusp of establishing a federal holiday marking the end of slavery.
If signed by Biden, the day will be the first new national holiday since Martin Luther King Jr. Day was established in 1983.
Isn’t segregated holidays what you all wanted?
“What to the American slave is your Fourth of July? I answer, a day that reveals to him more than all other days of the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mock; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade and solemnity, are to him mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy - a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation of the earth guilty of practices more shocking and bloody than are the people of these United States at this very hour.”Tim Scott never would have had the courage to stand before a crowd of white republicans and say this.
Frederick Douglas
We declared and fought for independence from Britain. We couldn’t free slaves because your friends, the Democrats, never would had joined the fight for independence. So that battle was fought just a generation later, fought by white men of course.
But the slaves loved it here in America, so they stayed. The embraced the superior culture of White America, as do their descendants who continue to choose to stay.
Yes, Democrats were the racists back in the 1950's but you are today's racists. Remember Trump said there were a lot of very fine people at a KKK rally? They were all Republicans. Don't forget that.
"Don't forget those "democrats" back then would be Republicans today."
Of course, that's false. You Democrats lie about everything.
they were Dixiecrats......not Dixiecans.
And like Wallace, went right back to voting Democrat.
“…if you take race out of the picture, it’s likely that white Southerners would have switched parties earlier and in greater numbers. “
Unable to comprehend that Southern Americans are not the racists that the Democrats are, they had to find some explanation for their ancient base, the South, turning to vote Republican. Sooo….they claimed that Nixon campaigned as a racist to gain the Deep South, to win over the Dixiecrats and segregationists to the Republican fold.
Of course, problem #1 is that the Democrats cannot provide a single example of an explicitly racist pitch in the campaign. There never was one.
“The two biggest issues in the 1968 campaign were the Vietnam War…and the anti-war movement….
Nixon campaigned on a strong anti-communist, law and order platform. While embracing the welfare state- Nixon was no conservative on domestic issues- he also railed against what he termed ‘the excesses of bleeding heart liberalism.’”

Today's GOP is not your fathers GOP.
"... Trump defends the KKK on national TV."
Watch as I effortlessly ram the lie back down your throat:
From Left-leaning USAToday:
"To be fair, President Donald Trump was making a somewhat subtler point. In his colloquy with the press, he was not calling neo-Nazis great folks but arguing that many of the Confederate-statue-loving protesters in Charlottesville, Virginia, were not neo-Nazis at all. Somehow, these “fine people” got mixed in with white supremacists shouting, “Jews will not replace us,” and never noticed their compatriots were not fine people, too."
One year after Charlottesville, Trump has normalized racism in America
"You had some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides... I saw the same pictures as you did. You had people in that group that were there to protest taking down of, to them, a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name... So you know what, it's fine. You're changing history. You're changing culture. And you had people -- and I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally -- but you had many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and White nationalists. Okay? And the press has treated them absolutely unfairly. Now, in the other group also, you had some fine people. But you also had troublemakers, and you see them come with the black outfits and with helmets and with baseball bats. You had a lot of bad people in the other group."

Did I just wipe up the floor with you, or what.
Nothing you say is true.
Soooo….why did the South end up in the Republican camp? Not due to the preposterous and slanderous allegations of the Democrats, i.e., that they’re all racists, both the Southern voters and the Republican Party.
Here is the answer in microcosm: because neither the Southern voter nor the GOP is racist:
a. 1966 Republican Bo Calloway ran against Democrat Lester Maddox, who “gained national attention for refusing to serve blacks in his popular cafeteria near the Georgia Tech campus. Newsmen tipped off about the confrontation reported how restaurant patrons and employees wielded ax handles while Mr. Maddox waved a pistol. …”
About Questia | Questia, Your Online Research Library
Maddox was endorsed by Democrat Jimmy Carter in the above governor’s race. When the race was too close to call, the Democrat state legislature gave it to Maddox.
b.1966- Republican Spiro Agnew ran against Democrat segregationists George Mahoney for governor of Maryland. Agnew enacted some of the first laws in the nation against race discrimination in public housing. “Agnew signed the state's first open-housing laws and succeeded in getting the repeal of an anti-miscegenationlaw.”
Spiro Agnew - Wikipedia
c.1966- pro-integrationist Republican Winthrop Rockefeller won Arkansas, replacing Bill Clinton-pal Orval Faubus.
Not all Democrats were segregationists, but all segregationists were Democrats! And…there were enough of them to demand compliance from the rest of the party.
One would imagine that, in the face of this onslaught of facts that they can’t refute, the Democrat voters would change their support.
They won’t because they can’t: for the weak mind, indoctrination is indelible.
12. “[W]hile the Deep South voted for Goldwater in 1964, the Democrats still carried a whopping 90 of 106 congressional districts in Dixie in 1964. In fact, the big breakthrough for the GOP in the House did not come until 1994. Prior to that, the Democrats could count on better than 3/5ths of the Southern congressional districts.
As late as 2010, there were still states like Alabama and North Carolina that were voting in their first Republican legislative majorities since Reconstruction – something that would have happened overnight in the late 60s if the partisan realignment had been driven by lockstep white voting loyalties on racial lines.
Nixon made more symbolic than substantive accommodations to white Southerners. He enforced the Civil Rights Act and extended the Voting Rights Act. On school desegregation, he had to be prodded by the courts in some ways but went further than them in others: He supervised a desegregation of Deep South schools that had eluded his predecessors and then denied tax-exempt status to many private “desegregation academies” to which white Southerners tried to flee. Nixon also institutionalized affirmative action and set-asides for minorities in federal contracting.”
Meanwhile, the Democratic record is hardly anything to be proud of. The first modern progressive Democrat, Woodrow Wilson, was a horrible racist who did everything in his power to strengthen Jim Crow in the federal government and leave it alone in the states despite his usual preference for expanding federal power
… FDR used more subtle racial appeals to hold white Southerners in his coalition while using economic issues to solidify the transition of black voters to loyal Democrats
…the turn from the LBJ of the 1950s:
“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.”
...to the LBJ of 1965:
President Johnson … informed skeptical southern governors that his plan for the Great Society was “to have them n___ers voting Democratic for the next two hundred years.”
Fundamentally, the Democratic Party’s approach to racial and ethnic politics has not really changed all that much since the 1830s; it’s just calibrated to a different audience.”

Prove that they voted at all, I know you can't and you are as per usual lying, your only attribute on USMB.I looked at the 2 Parties today, and voted for the one NOT dominated by a psychotic orange narcissist, populated by hordes of confused violent arrested-adolescent incels, and not dedicated to treasonous insurrection! Wow, that was easy...Republicans authored and proposed the Corwin Amendment which would have made slavery constitutional. It passed congress but never got ratified. So republicans need to stop that disingenuous democrat slavery shit.
Which party ended slavery, and which party started a war to keep slavery?
Take your time.
Oh.....and which one do you vote for?
"....populated by hordes of confused violent arrested-adolescent incels, and not dedicated to treasonous insurrection! Wow, that was easy..."
Let's check:
“Jaw-Dropping: Police Chief Association Releases Number of Officers Injured During Violent Riots
The Major Cities Chiefs Association released a report detailing the number of violent riots and the number of police officers injured during the riots U.S. cities faced after the death of George Floyd in May.The MCCA, which has members in 69 of the largest cities in the U.S., released the findings of their survey in October and compiled data from May 25 to July 31, 2020. In total, 8,700 protests took place in major American cities during that time period.Of the 8,700 protests, 574 of them were riots that saw mass looting and destruction.
During the riots cities experienced, the MCCA said their survey found at least 2,000 police officers were injured:
"In cities where violence did occur, assaults on police officers, looting, and arson were the most common criminal activities. Approximately, 72% of major city law enforcement agencies had officers harmed during the protests. This included nearly every agency that experienced at least one violent protest. In total, over the course of the civil unrest from May to July, more than 2,000 officers sustained injuries in the line of duty. One agency reported 50 officers being injured in a single week of protests. Another agency reported that 462 of their officers were injured during the protests in their jurisdiction.
"Looting was also a common occurrence (2,385 instances), with 62% of major city law enforcement agencies indicating that at least one incident of looting occurred in their cities. “
Every single one due to Biden voters.
Riots, arson, anarchism, assaults, lawlessness rewarded, neither lives nor property safe.....under Democrat governance.
One wonders why citizens pay taxes, and what they expect from government, when the above is the norm from Democrats officials.

The Trump voters are the Confederate flag wavers not the Biden voters, that clearly shows who is who, but you keep on wearing those blinders Polislick they really do improve your look just not your looking.
Well since people want to give republicans all this credit and that something like polichic will proudly declare how Frederick Douglass was a black republican:
“What have I, or those I represent, to do with your national independence? Are the great principles of political freedom and of natural justice, embodied in that Declaration of Independence, extended to us? What to the American slave is your Fourth of July? I answer, a day that reveals to him more than all other days of the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mock; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade and solemnity, are to him mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy - a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation of the earth guilty of practices more shocking and bloody than are the people of these United States at this very hour.”

The Nazis had lots of guns the only ones who didn't were the Jews..Much how the GOP handles black people with guns...Yet, today, every one of you Republicans is a racist treasonous reprobate!Texas con-servatives who were in the Democrat party at that time. After LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act, they all ran to the GOP....much more compatable for racist con-servatives by then.We should always remember the lengths the democrat party went to to keep their black slaves
Prior to 1957, LBJ “had never supported civil rights legislation- any civil rights legislation. In the Senate and House alike, his record was an unbroken one of votes against every civil rights bill that had ever come to a vote: against voting rights bills; against bills that would have struck at job discrimination and at segregation in other areas of American life; even against bills that would have protected blacks from lynching.”
Robert Caro, “Master of the Senate: The Years of Lyndon Johnson, vol.3,” p. xv.
Isn't history fascinating?

You are only using half the statement you left out the part about conservatives. So now you use those p[people you despise to prove how racist both parties are and their conniving of a group of people to get their votes? I really enjoyed how you exposed your hate and your ignorance all at once.Well since people want to give republicans all this credit and that something like polichic will proudly declare how Frederick Douglass was a black republican:

You mean the Jews were disarmed right before they got sent to the gas chambers by the nazi socialists?The Nazis had lots of guns the only ones who didn't were the Jews..Much how the GOP handles black people with guns...Yet, today, every one of you Republicans is a racist treasonous reprobate!Texas con-servatives who were in the Democrat party at that time.

If that was true you would have provided a link. I think you are referring to Ramesses II who looks just like Scottie Pippen. Even if it was true what makes you think Black people cant have red hair?The earliest mummies had red hair. White people had boats and controlled the coasts of the Mediterranean Sea. Negroids had no technology.White people have changed history many times so I have to disagree. How do you think the ancient Egyptians became white when the facts are that white people were still living in caves during those times?its bad with the blacks . their the ones complaining. history is history can not be changed. even if more white;s did things in history then blacks. it is what it is.History has long been whitewashed by europeans desperately trying to convince the world they are great. The inferiority complex thing is bad with them.The Bunker Hill Monument marks the site of one of the first major battles of the American Revolution. A Battle in which inexperienced colonial forces fought against a highly trained army of British soldiers. Less well-known is the story of the significant role played by the more than 100 African American and Native American soldiers who took part in the battle. To examine the roles of these “patriots of color” in the Revolution is to discover the complexities of the revolutionary period as well as the diversity of its participants, their motivations, and their perspectives.Thanks for proving my point. Hate to break it to you, but you were never a slave, so stop pretending you ever were one.Lol! The gaslighting begins. Bitch, we've been celebrating Juneteenth for years. With whites. So just fsace the truth, in fact let me hep you with a few words from a black republican:Now this is your Black Independence Day, when whites informed some negroes they were free. You don’t have to celebrate July 4th Independence Day as that is a white holiday now.This is all good but what will this actually do? I already celebrated Juneteenth without the approval of whites. Its not going to reverse the affects of centuries of slavery or the decades of systemic racism Black people have endured in this country. Is it just another "starting point"? If so a starting point for what?The Southern Democrats or Grant the Union general? Both of those had slaves.We should always remember the lengths the democrat party went to to keep their black slaves
Just remember this. Today it's 14 Republicans who voted against black people.
The House overwhelmingly passed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act on Wednesday by a vote of 415 to 14, sending the legislation to President Joe Biden’s desk and putting the nation on the cusp of establishing a federal holiday marking the end of slavery.
If signed by Biden, the day will be the first new national holiday since Martin Luther King Jr. Day was established in 1983.
Isn’t segregated holidays what you all wanted?

There is not a nation of the earth guilty of practices more shocking and bloody than are the people of these United States at this very hour.”Tim Scott never would have had the courage to stand before a crowd of white republicans and say this.
Frederick Douglas
We declared and fought for independence from Britain. We couldn’t free slaves because your friends, the Democrats, never would had joined the fight for independence. So that battle was fought just a generation later, fought by white men of course.
But the slaves loved it here in America, so they stayed. The embraced the superior culture of White America, as do their descendants who continue to choose to stay.
