Memo to Obama - blame the Dems for racism, not Republicans

Quote from smilingsynic:

On matters of race, conservatives opposed integration and supported segregation, and from 1865 to the late 1940's, Democrats were conservatives on race.

The big shift took place when Truman integrated the armed forces, a decision that sparked the rise of the Dixiecrats. The move in the South away from the Democratic party began.

The move in the South away from the (national) Democratic party escalated in 1965, when Lyndon Johnson signed civil rights legislation. Ever since then, the Republican party has grown in the South, largely because they adopted the (psedo) racist party platform once held by the Democrats.

On social matters, Democrats have become much more liberal since WW2, and Republicans, once progressive on race, have grown much more conservative.

The population aged and people moved away from the left, still are...
 
Guys like Obama make their living off of racism, they don't want it to end. He, and Hillary, will be fighting to their dying day to make sure we never get over racism. Without the black vote the Democrats could not get the dogcatcher position..
 
Whites are voting in white republicans in blue states. Those white republicans are beating democrats.

If republicans are color blind as has been suggested, why can't/dont those same whites vote in black republicans?

Okay, say 90% of blacks are democrats.

Okay, then why don't we see some of the remaining 10% who are black republican, becoming senators and congressmen by virtue of being voted in by the white republicans?





Quote from neophyte321:

perhaps it has something to do with the fact the 90% of blacks vote for, and presumably run as, Democrats.

Get yourself a red/blue state map, virtually, all the areas occurpied primarily by blacks are staunchly blue.

AND ONE OTHER THING ........... BLACKS CAN'T RUN AS CONSERVATIVES WITHOUT BEING LABELED UNCLE TOMS BY THEIR OWN FRICKING KIND....

That, is the present, past and future.

Again, somehow this becomes my fault, a conservative white man ... Why? Because no one can say such things and defend themselves without being run out town on a rail by Jesse Jackson, except of course Reverend Wright, who happens to be a Democrat and a racist bastard who the Left Is Now Defending!!!!!!!!!!!

Case Closed ...

Quote from ZZZzzzzzzz:

The democrat party you speak of is not the same party as in the past (Republicans point this out all the time by pointing to the hawkish nature of Truman) just as the republican party today is not really the party of Lincoln, nor perhaps even of Ronald Reagan.

For goodness, the party of Reagan is putting up John McCain for president?

LMAO...

Nearly all the hard right wing hates McCain because they believe he does not represent what they think of as the republican party nor papa Reagan's agenda...

ROTFLMAO...

Leave it to the ancient history buffs to be oblivious to the present...
Setting aside your strawman for the moment, thank you for acknowledging the Democratic party's history of slavery and promoting racism in this country.

You've made the point of the author whose essay is in the first post of this thread.

Thank you.

Now, please explain how it is you come to the conclusion that the Republican party is racist at the present time.

In terms of party affiliation of registered voters, the GOP (the more conservative party) is losing members, and the Democratic party (the more liberal party) is gaining members.

it probably has something to do with the amount of CO2 big oil is realeasing into the atmosphere ... certainly, couldn't be a natural ebb-and-flow...
 
Should, could, would....

You don't have no answer for why the red states have no elected black congressmen or senators in D.C. at present?

LOL!

Why don't we see black republicans voted in by the red states if the white republicans are color blind?
