Should democrats re-institute Jim Crow Laws?

For 100 years, the Republicans fought for the freedom and equality of blacks. Lincoln was a Republican, and he won the freedom from slavery for blacks. In 1957, Eisenhower sent the U.S. Army to Little Rock to force Democrat Governor Orval Fabus to desegregate the schools.

All of the racist bigots became Democrats after the Civil War because Lincoln was a Republican. For 100 years, Democrats were the ones who lynched blacks and made laws against blacks. That's why most blacks were Republicans until the Democrats bought their votes with welfare in 1964.

But even though the blacks switched parties in 1964, most racist bigots did not. How many pre-1964 southern racist Democrat bigots did NOT join the Republican party after 1964?

Bull ConnorIn fact, it seems that MOST of the Dixiecrats did NOT join the Republican party, even though many of them lived long past 1964. Only a very FEW of them switched to the GOP, such as Strom Thurmond and Mills Godwin. And as we all know by now, the ONLY admitted former KKK member in Congress today is Robert Byrd, a former KKK Kleagle, a recruiter who persuaded people to join the KKK.So where do we get this myth that "most" of the southern racist Democrats switched to the Republican party after 1964?

Is it a myth? Or just another Democrat LIE?

Yoda cookie, you might want to do some research. It was the Democrats who wanted the slavery to continue, who created Jim Crow laws, who were opposed to Civil rights. I'm sure because it's not on American Idol, or Entertainment Tonight, you didn't pay any attention.

Go get some books about history, of the U.S. Civil War. I'm sure not defending what this guy is saying, but I did pay attention in History class.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
