So, in response to a real news article by Reuters and the AP, neither of which are affiliated with Fox, you've decided to ignore your Messiah's blunt appeal to racism and drag in severa completely unrelated and phony stories to distract the discussion. How Marxist of you.

Ignoring you now, it's plain that you people elected a racist who is now yet again campaigning on race in a last ditch effort to prevent the non-racist Americans from dumping the Democrats, who have never stopped being the home of racism in America, from power.

I just love the smell of Desperate Democrats in the morning.

Even if you are black, asking black people to vote for members of your political party, based on policy, probably isn't racist. It's not like he said "vote for Democrats to spite whitey."

It was only for 50 years though.

I have no problem with the Democrats being the racist party, but they can't be southern-style social conservatives and Marxists. It's kind of hard to champion southern social conservatism and communism at the same time.

Believe me, not only blacks are "guarding the change", but as he is the King of Poverty... he is forcing millions of Americans to guard their change... every penny.

Urging is not the same as force and you know it. The force that is making Americans guard their change is the Rep/media scare tactics. They would actually sink the ship to stop Obamas reelection.

Care to back that up with any facts or is it just fun to throw up pics? We already know about the black panthers and that voting location incident.

Where is your evidence for that pic?

Produce it.

My point is that it's absurd to:
  1. Hold the President responsible for the behavior of -- how many people were actually involved, anyway? -- private citizens with whom he has no affiliation other than his skin color
  2. Keep bringing up over and over and over and over again what were ultimately isolated incidents as if they were systemic
  3. Pretend as if these individuals have anything to do with the OP
If we're bent on going the absurd route, then the absurd route we shall go.

A. It's not racist to appeal to a particular segment of the population which polls heavily in support of your party year after year after year.

B. How is that Marxist? Do you even know what that word means anymore, or is it just your generic I-hate-this word?

C. He's not Messiah, nor my "guy," or any such thing. I've said repeatedly that I'm not a fan of Obama. Please stop lying about me.

Please stop lying about me.

They used to be Republicans, until they changed their registration after Bush essentially destroyed the party and left it leaderless. :lol:

Actually, history teaches us a different story. Democrats once had what was called the Solid South, and it lasted until President Johnson sent troops and federal agents in to investigate and prosecute the Mississippi Burning episode, when 3 civil rights workers were murdered by the law, when churches throughout the South were set on fire, and when lynchings were an everyday practice. And then the Civil Rights Bill was passed into law. A few racist Democrats, like Byrd, stayed with the party, but the vast majority of them became Republicans. The Democrats' Solid South disappeared like a fart in the wind. Nixon became the first president in a long time to carry the South, and it was for that very reason.

You mean this David Duke?

Early campaigns

Duke first ran for the Louisiana State Senate as a Democrat from a Baton Rouge district in 1975. In 1979, he ran as a Democrat for the 10th District Senate seat and finished second in a three-candidate race with 9,897 votes (26 percent).[16] Duke allegedly conducted a direct-mail appeal in 1987, using the identity and mailing-list of the Georgia Forsyth County Defense League without permission. League officials described it as a fund-raising scam.
[edit] 1988 Democratic Presidential Campaign

In 1988, Duke ran initially in the Democratic presidential primaries. His campaign failed to make much of an impact, with the one notable exemption of winning the little known New Hampshire Vice-Presidential primary.[17] Duke, having failed to gain much traction as a Democrat, then successfully sought the Presidential nomination of the Populist Party.[18] He appeared on the ballot for President in eleven states and was a write-in candidate in some other states, some with Trenton Stokes of Arkansas for Vice President, and on other state ballots with Floyd Parker for Vice President. He received just 47,047 votes, for 0.04 percent of the combined, national popular vote.

Duke's views prompted some of his critics (including Republicans) to form the Louisiana Coalition Against Racism and Nazism, which directed media attention to Duke's statements of hostility to blacks and Jews.

Despite repudiation by the Republican Party,[41] Duke ran for Louisiana Governor in 1991.

The interest group, the Louisiana Coalition against Racism and Nazism, rallied against the election of Duke as governor. Among its leaders was Beth Rickey, a moderate member of the Louisiana Republican State Central Committee and a Ph.D. student at Tulane University, who began to follow Duke to record his speeches and expose what she saw as instances of racist and neo-Nazi remarks.
