Well, your desperate Hail Mary at trying to distance your party from racism is an epic failure. Your current nominee for POTUS thinks white kids are just as smart as poor kids, blacks can’t vote freely, and Obama was a rare clean and articulate black.The old Democratic Party began dissolving in earnest in the 1960s when segregationist like Strom Thurmond left the Democratic party for the Republican Party and this exodus became a tidal wave with Nixon and the Southern strategy when thousands, if not tens of thousands, of these Southern segregationists joined the Republican Party. The Democratic Party did not want these individuals and they fled to the Republicans and have been there ever since. The Democratic Party has not been the same party since then. Neither has the Republican Party for that matter.
