There was no "Southern Strategy."

But....there are low information voters who believe it.....
Raise your paw.

I guess Ronald Reagan's man in the White House is wrong then, because there it is in black and white. Deny it all you want, it won't go away.

OK.....time to explode another of your most firmly held beliefs:

My public service: the southern strategy myth:

1. The myth:…segregationist voters who blamed civil rights on the Democrats, switched loyalties to new Republicans who now embraced their views. Republicans ran against busing, against affirmative action, against equal rights legislation…The south has been Republican ever since]

1. According to this liberal myth, Goldwater and the Republicans were racists and used racism to appeal to racist southerners to change the electoral map. To believe the tale, one must be either a reliable Democrat voter, and/or be ignorant of the history of the time.
2. Goldwater was one of only six Republican senators to vote against the 1964 act. He did so on libertarian grounds, opposed to the act’s restrictions on private property which he believed beyond the Congress’s powers under the commerce clause. Five others supported the party’s presidential nominee.
   1. Goldwater went on to win five southern states in 1964: Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and South Carolina. But he lost eight.
   2. Democrats build the ‘southern strategy’ tale on the fact that the same states voted for ‘Dixiecrat’ Strom Thurmond in 1948 (less Georgia).
   3. Except that Nixon and Reagan lost, or almost lost the same states in ’68 and ’80…
   4. And Jimmy Carter and Clinton did pretty well in those states in ’76 and ’92.
   5. And the Goldwater states went right back to voting Democrat for decades…
3. So…if Republicans were racists and got racist southerners to vote for them, how to explain this: Republicans always did best in the southern states that Goldwater lost, which happened to be the same ones Republicans had been winning with some regularity since 1928.
   1. In ’28, ’52, ’56, and ’60, Republicans generally won Virginia, Florida, Texas, Kentucky and sometimes North Carolina or Louisiana. Did you notice that those years were before 1964?
   2. Four years after Goldwater, the segregationist vote went right back to Democrats: Humphrey got half of Wallace’s supporters on election day. Nixon got none of ‘em. “When the '68 campaign began, Nixon was at 42 percent, Humphrey at 29 percent, Wallace at 22 percent. When it ended, Nixon and Humphrey were tied at 43 percent, with Wallace at 13 percent. The 9 percent of the national vote that had been peeled off from Wallace had gone to Humphrey.” Pat Buchanan - The neocons & Nixon's southern strategy
   3. In ’76, Carter swept the South. Was Carter appealing to bigots….or is that only the case when Republicans win the South?
4. Reagan lost or barely won the Goldwater states…but Reagan won among young southern voters- but lost among seniors, those who has voted in ’48 and ’64. That meant that the segregationists never abandoned the Democrats: eventually they died or were outvoted by younger voters. Nope…after Thurmond’s run, the Dixiecrats went right back to voting for Democrats for another half century.
5. In writing about McGovern and Wallace, liberal luminary, Arthur Schlesinger, actually referred to Wallace voters as responding to their candidate’s “integrity”! “The primaries themselves, especially the success of McGovern and Wallace, provide the best evidence for the proposition that voters in 1972 care less about a candidate's stand on particular issues than they do about the candidate's integrity,…” How McGovern Will Win
   1. McGovern gave a tip-of-the-hat to the segregationist Wallace in his acceptance speech at the Democrat Convention. That was the exact midpoint between Goldwater and Reagan. So…what of the imaginary “southern strategy” where the Republicans were supposed to have a plan to appeal to racists?
   2. Democrat McGovern: “And I was as moved as well by the appearance in the Convention Hall of the Governor of Alabama, George Wallace. … Governor, we pray for your full recovery so you can stand up and speak out for all of those who see you as their champion.” ACCEPTANCE SPEECH OF SENATOR GEORGE MCGOVERN

So did I just prove that you are a dunce, or what.

PC Make time to answer this one because I am going to lean on you for an answer.

2005: Southern Strategy was wrong; move to Hispanic Strategy
In 2005, Republican Party chairman Ken Mehlman went to the NAACP national convention, to apologize for a Southern Strategy that had given the GOP five victories in six presidential contests and brought the party to national power: "I am here today as the Republican chairman to tell you we were wrong.""We have now moved from the Southern strategy we pursued for the last 3 decades, since Richard Nixon, to a Hispanic strategy for the next three decades,"

BULLSHIT "QUOTE' MADE UP A DECADE AFTER HE DIED, LOL

Sourced by a Pulitzer Prize winning author

"Turns out the source of that supposed saying by Lyndon B. Johnson "I'll have them ******* voting Democratic for two hundred years" first originated in Ronald Kessler's 1996 book Inside the White House: The Hidden Lives of the Modern Presidents and the Secrets of the World's Most Powerful Institution, sourced from a 1993 interview with former Air Force One steward Robert M. MacMillan.


An allegation made 20 years after LBJ's death.

Actually....no.

"A source for information about LBJ who is not a partisan hack, dirty trickster and MLK-adultery publicist is Robert M. MacMillan, Air Force One steward during the Johnson administration. Macmillan reports that when LBJ was flying on Air Force One with two governors once, he boasted, “I’ll have them ******* voting Democratic for two hundred years.”

FUKKN POS

Did you want Kessler to exhume LBJ and ask him?

What a fucking tard!

You mean THE ONE STEWARD WHO SAID HE SAID IT, NOT the writer who just propagated the myth?

Time to make you eat more crow....

"[LBJ] called me 'boy,' '******,' or 'chief,' never by my name... Whenever I was late, no matter what the reason, Johnson called me 'a lazy good for nothing ******'...I was afraid of him because of the pain and humiliation he could inflict at a moment's notice."-- Robert Parker, LBJ's chauffeur, in his autobiography, "Capital Hill in Black and White".

ONE person said that was true, almost 2 decades AFTER LBJ died, lol

From a review of Robert Parker's book "Capitol Hill in Black and White"..

"This book is an absolute MUST READ if you want to understand Lyndon Johnson. Black man Robert Parker was LBJ's factotum, chauffeur and later climbed to the maître d' of the prestigious Senate Dining Room.

This is one of the best books I have ever read about Lyndon Johnson as well as one of the best political books I have read. Robert Parker attached himself to the coattails of Lyndon Johnson and worked his way up to a patronage job as the maître de of the Senate Dining Room.

Parker was in place for the civil rights movement of the 1960's; he helped to facilitate meetings of civil rights leaders and due to his networking with senators and their families he became a power player in his own right.

The racism of Lyndon Johnson is on full display in this book as Robert Parker offers up several fascinating LBJ anecdotes that illustrate his boorish cruelty.- LBJ told Parker just shut up and pretend you are a piece of GD furniture."



Everything said in this thread about LBJ is absolutely true.

Oh I agree, LJB WAS a racist prick from the SOUTHERN CONservative CONfederate States of AmeriKKKa but grew a brain and started acting on his compassion versus CONservative upbringing/culture!


Nothing about that however supports the 200 year quote 2 decades after LBJ died. Weird right?

 

[Dad2three]

"Coulter goes on to show that LBJ continually rejected civil rights bills proposed by only Republicans and it was not until 1964, when Johnson finally signed the civil rights act with very little help from his fellow Democrats in Congress. Even after the passage of the civil rights act, Democrats continued to win elections in former segregationist states all the way through the election of George H.W. Bush despite the folklore of the GOP “southern strategy.”
PICKET: Coulter shreds 'southern strategy' myth as GOP successfully runs more blacks in conservative districts - Washington Times


There was no "Southern Strategy."

But....there are low information voters who believe it.....
Raise your paw.

I guess Ronald Reagan's man in the White House is wrong then, because there it is in black and white. Deny it all you want, it won't go away.

OK.....time to explode another of your most firmly held beliefs:

My public service: the southern strategy myth:

1. The myth:…segregationist voters who blamed civil rights on the Democrats, switched loyalties to new Republicans who now embraced their views. Republicans ran against busing, against affirmative action, against equal rights legislation…The south has been Republican ever since]

1. According to this liberal myth, Goldwater and the Republicans were racists and used racism to appeal to racist southerners to change the electoral map. To believe the tale, one must be either a reliable Democrat voter, and/or be ignorant of the history of the time.
2. Goldwater was one of only six Republican senators to vote against the 1964 act. He did so on libertarian grounds, opposed to the act’s restrictions on private property which he believed beyond the Congress’s powers under the commerce clause. Five others supported the party’s presidential nominee.
   1. Goldwater went on to win five southern states in 1964: Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and South Carolina. But he lost eight.
   2. Democrats build the ‘southern strategy’ tale on the fact that the same states voted for ‘Dixiecrat’ Strom Thurmond in 1948 (less Georgia).
   3. Except that Nixon and Reagan lost, or almost lost the same states in ’68 and ’80…
   4. And Jimmy Carter and Clinton did pretty well in those states in ’76 and ’92.
   5. And the Goldwater states went right back to voting Democrat for decades…
3. So…if Republicans were racists and got racist southerners to vote for them, how to explain this: Republicans always did best in the southern states that Goldwater lost, which happened to be the same ones Republicans had been winning with some regularity since 1928.
   1. In ’28, ’52, ’56, and ’60, Republicans generally won Virginia, Florida, Texas, Kentucky and sometimes North Carolina or Louisiana. Did you notice that those years were before 1964?
   2. Four years after Goldwater, the segregationist vote went right back to Democrats: Humphrey got half of Wallace’s supporters on election day. Nixon got none of ‘em. “When the '68 campaign began, Nixon was at 42 percent, Humphrey at 29 percent, Wallace at 22 percent. When it ended, Nixon and Humphrey were tied at 43 percent, with Wallace at 13 percent. The 9 percent of the national vote that had been peeled off from Wallace had gone to Humphrey.” Pat Buchanan - The neocons & Nixon's southern strategy
   3. In ’76, Carter swept the South. Was Carter appealing to bigots….or is that only the case when Republicans win the South?
4. Reagan lost or barely won the Goldwater states…but Reagan won among young southern voters- but lost among seniors, those who has voted in ’48 and ’64. That meant that the segregationists never abandoned the Democrats: eventually they died or were outvoted by younger voters. Nope…after Thurmond’s run, the Dixiecrats went right back to voting for Democrats for another half century.
5. In writing about McGovern and Wallace, liberal luminary, Arthur Schlesinger, actually referred to Wallace voters as responding to their candidate’s “integrity”! “The primaries themselves, especially the success of McGovern and Wallace, provide the best evidence for the proposition that voters in 1972 care less about a candidate's stand on particular issues than they do about the candidate's integrity,…” How McGovern Will Win
   1. McGovern gave a tip-of-the-hat to the segregationist Wallace in his acceptance speech at the Democrat Convention. That was the exact midpoint between Goldwater and Reagan. So…what of the imaginary “southern strategy” where the Republicans were supposed to have a plan to appeal to racists?
   2. Democrat McGovern: “And I was as moved as well by the appearance in the Convention Hall of the Governor of Alabama, George Wallace. … Governor, we pray for your full recovery so you can stand up and speak out for all of those who see you as their champion.” ACCEPTANCE SPEECH OF SENATOR GEORGE MCGOVERN

So did I just prove that you are a dunce, or what.

No, anyone who would source Pat Buchanan as a an authority about race relations has already lost the argument. Next time don't pick bigots to prove to us what you are.

I just proved, with facts about the result of elections, both that there was no Southern Strategy, and that you are a fool.

Unless you'd like to deny the truth of my post....

RNC Chair Michael Steele Confesses to Race-Based Southern Strategy

RNC Chair Michael Steele Confesses to Race-Based Southern Strategy


Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman apologized to one of the nation's largest black civil rights groups Thursday, saying Republicans had not done enough to court blacks in the past and had exploited racial strife to court white voters, particularly in the South.


"It's not healthy for the country for our political parties to be so racially polarized," said Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman.


"Some Republicans gave up on winning the African-American vote, looking the other way or trying to benefit politically from racial polarization," Mehlman said at the annual convention of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "I am here today as the Republican chairman to tell you we were wrong."
