Rally at Columbia SC state house Tomorrow afternoon “TAKE THE FLAG DOWN”

[Flopper]

When I was a kid growing up I was very proud to be part of a republican family. I didn't know anything about politics, but my parents were feircely republican. My family is Cuban you see, and view the Democrats as evil. But then I lived through the Bush Presidency, and I saw the hatred and vitriol that is the foundation of the modern GOP.

So I connected the dots, and I imagine that's what Democrats during the civil rights movement must have been like; hateful, bitter people. Then if you look at the states and counties that once railed against the civil rights movement, somehow they are all republican dominated now. I can't believe that somehow that's just a coincidence.

It's an absurd notion that KKK Racists would join the Republican Party when that party freed the slaves and got rid of democrat legislated Jim Crow laws. Name one anti-black law sponsored by The GOP. Democrats haven't changed, only their method for enslaving blacks. It's called the liberal plantation. We've had 6 six year of black democrat presidency and blacks are still no better off thanks to democrats.

KKK members today would certainly support the Republican party, the party for stronger states rights, the party that is 93% white, the party against affirmative action, and the party that demonized the man most respected by blacks, the president. KKK members would certainly feel they are in the right place in today's Republican party.

 

[Flopper]

And who ran on the Southern Strategy in 1964, promising Southern whites that a Republican federal government would do less to interfere with southern discrimination against and disenfranchisement of blacks?

Indeed. That was when Exalted Cyclops Bobby Byrd, Al Gore Sr., Jim Eastland and all those other nasty racist Democrats who opposed the Civil Rights Act ran off and joined the Republican Party.

I remember it as if it were yesterday.

Although most of the segregationist either joined the Republican party or supported their candidates, some remained Democrats to continue the fight for segregation. Others such as Bryd explicitly renounced his earlier views favoring segregation.

However, for most segregationist, supporting a party that was becoming increasingly black and supporting policies that favored blacks was just impossible. They simply had no other place to go except the Republican Party.

Talking point. Try saying something original and factual if you want to debate with the big boys.

Also, it should be noted at the rally that the flag was a symbol of the Democrats.

But of course, it won't be.

So, you are trying to convince us that segregationists left the party of segregation, aka George Wallace and fled to the party that stopped George Wallace. Really that is what you want people to believe?

Look at all the southern states that voted for Jimmy Carter. Explain that away. Fact is, when republicans took over the Southern State legislatures, blacks thrived as never before under the rule of racist Democrats. Own your fuckin' heritage and quit pushing it on the GOP.

Cartier was only the second presidential candidate from South in more that 125 year, a segregationist and a devout Christian. Against Gerald Ford, it was a no contest in the South. Ford voted for and was a strong supporter of the Civil Rights and the 1965 Voting Act.

Of course. George Wallace deserted the Democratic Party both in 1968 and 1972 to run for president as a candidate of the American Independent Party. Well know Democrats such as Strom Thurmond, Jesse Helms became Republicans. However, most Democrats remained in the party in both 60's and 70's but offered little support for Democrats in national elections. Some out right endorse Republican presidential candidates or refuse to endorse the Democrat nominee.

In the 1980's, Reagan views on state rights, the 1964 Civil Rights Act, cutting welfare (which in the South, went mostly to blacks), school busing, and affirmative action was all in complete alignment with the views of southern segregationists. The results of the 1980 and 1984 election left no doubt that Republicans would own the South and within 20 years the once solid Democratic South would become the Solid Republican South.

You know if they even tried Hillary could lose 8 maybe 9 states overnight. SC is older then the United States. SC was here BEFORE federal government. She could lose bad, really really bad.

KKK members today would certainly support the Republican party, the party for stronger states rights, the party that is 93% white, the party against affirmative action, and the party that demonized the man most respected by blacks, the president.

Absolutely correct, Wallace and the Dixiecrats parted from the democrat party because they could not win the nomination. After their failed attempts where did they go? Right back home to the democrat party. You can name only ONE democrat that became a Republican and that ONE democrat renounced his past views and had absolutely no effect on the Republican platform.

You imply that Reagan ended desegregation, didn't happen. You imply Reagan ended welfare, didn't happen. If you look up Clinton's bio you will see one of the major accomplishments listed is what? Welfare reform.
