Why do Conservatives say Democrats founded the KKK, supported slavery and Jim Crow?

The Democratic Party is the oldest political party in the U. S. & among the oldest political parties in the world.

It traces its roots to 1792. Southern Democrats is the term commonly applied to members and supporters of the United States (U.S.) Democratic Party who live in the states typically called the American South. This geographic region includes up to 16 states.

The included states vary based on a range of historical and political references. The term Southern Democrats was first used in the early 1800s when many regions of the United States were divided in their opinions on the morality and legality of slavery. They were often perceived as the strongest supporters of slavery, putting them in direct opposition to their Northern Democrat counterparts.

Their views on slavery and other social issues were also commonly thought to be in conflict with the relatively new political party that called themselves Republicans. As the politics of the land continued to evolve in the middle to late 1800s, some Southern Democrats became more liberal and embraced more middle-of-the-road political views. A significant number of other Southern Democrats, however, were bound together more closely by opposition to the Civil Rights Movement.

These people formed ultra-conservative factions such as the Dixiecrats and right-wing vigilante groups such as the White League and the Klu Klux Klan.
