That's right but it's not because of the racist history of the Democratic Party.
Dixiecrats or Democrats they were all the same.
I meaningless statement. "Dixiecrat" means blue dog dems, conservative dems who were gainst civil rights for blacks. the DNC has evolved to oppose the values of the former Dixiecrats.
No, they are not the same. But, I understand that is serves your agenda to conflate the two.
Sure and it was the social programs which led them to the Democrats. The KKKers were always Democrat.
KKKers started jumping ship with FDR, this continued but was accellerated by passage of the Civil Rights act, and after LBJ, there were very few KKKers in the DNC. They are all republicans.
I really don't give a damn who they were 50 years ago. Today they are republicans, and you will have to live with that fact, a fact which begs the question: why are white supremacists republicans?
Meditate on that.
In fact theree were a larger number of Republicans voting for the Bill than Democrats.
Where did they switch to?
IN any vote, especially prior to Newt Gingrich, a portion of the opposing party will support just about any bill that is put forth. That fact is really irrelevant to the premise here.
And what does that mean to you? That the President is a member of the KKK?
You can't have it both ways. You are trying to assert that because of KKK being dems, historically speaking, that dems are racist.
That is what you are implying, because that idea, as false as it is, serves your agenda.
But, if the reverse were true, and it is, currently, it can no longer serve your agenda, now can it?
But, it does serve the democrat agenda, and rightfully so. For obvious reasons, white supremacists are members of the republican party. We are going to continue to point out that fact.
Now, that doesn't mean republicans, on the whole, are white supremacists, but it does mean, on the whole, they are espousing values in common with white supremacists
The distinction is important.
You seem to be into revisionist history. Do you believe the KKK were Republicans, that they enforced segregation, created the Jim Crow Laws, fought for slavery, etc.?

You seem to be putting words into my mouth.
Read my rebuttals with more carefulness. It doesn't matter who they KKK were,
Which ever party they were, they were always against equality for blacks.
Now, that doesn't mean that republicans are against equality for blacks.
But, when it comes to the vote, I think the evidence if very clear that republicans want as few blacks to vote as possible. See? That's consistent with KKK values, though it's not as extreme, it's in their direction, and that is good enough for them to choose the GOP to join.
