Go to the rotunda of the Texas capital and look at all the portraits of the time after the civil war. Lot's of black folks held office. Originally Posted by Jewish LawyerHorse shit, JLHomo.

Jesus, people! Yes. The Republicans try to suppress the black vote. Originally Posted by CuteOldGuyHanoi COG, you are obviously not paying attention. Please try to keep up with the story line prior to making your customary idiotic remarks!
The first paragraph above should have read as follows:
My remarks were not about modern day Republican's trying "to suppress the black vote." Of course they do! Instead, my remarks were about JDIdiot's ridiculous claim that the extreme racial beliefs of the 1860's era Southern Democrats and today's modern day Democratic Party, are one and the same.

They were almost all freedmen and the Klan "protected" the polling places for the democrats. Jones County also where Chris McDaniels comes from. In fact, Jones County has long claimed the distinction of having seceded from the Confederacy.

Lots of black folks? Talking out of your asshole for a change.
I'm still waiting for Muskogee to show some evidence that 95% of southern politicians were black EVER. Originally Posted by Yssup Rider

The first paragraph above should have read as follows:Actually, you made the mistake on this post above, not the first one. JD B is claiming they are one and the same - that's his whole point. The Democrats were racists then and it carries over to today. Your counterpoint is that they are not one and the same.

Even Wikipedia clearly states in more than one reference (see below) that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 "bill divided and engendered a long-term change in the demographic support of both parties."
Anyone with any intelligence should be able to connect the dots. Oops, that eliminates JDIdiot from consideration. He has no intelligence!
From Wiki:
Thurmond switched parties because of his opposition to the 1964 Civil Rights Act
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strom_Thurmond
The bill divided and engendered a long-term change in the demographic support of both parties. President Johnson realized that supporting this bill would risk losing the South's overwhelming support of the Democratic Party. Both Attorney General Robert Kennedy and Vice President Johnson had pushed for the introduction of the civil rights legislation. Johnson told Kennedy aide Ted Sorensen that "I know the risks are great and we might lose the South, but those sorts of states may be lost anyway." Senator Richard Russell, Jr. later warned President Johnson that his strong support for the civil rights bill "will not only cost you the South, it will cost you the election". Johnson, however, went on to win the 1964 election by one of the biggest landslides in American history. The South, which had five states swing Republican in 1964, became a stronghold of the Republican party by the 1990s.

So answer the OP...
And Tampon is wrong again. At no time (this is his lie) did I say that racial beliefs of the democratic party of the 1860s matches the racial beliefs of the modern democrat. However, both groups of democrats see the black people as their "property". For labor in the old days and votes in the modern times. Just like the old days, there are even black people working against the benefits of the masses of the black population today.
Tampon, you don't win arguments by lying. Originally Posted by JD Barleycorn
