This presentation is just as flawed as the other one. Segregationists like the late Senator Strom Thurman and David Duke the former Grand Dragon of the Louisiana KKK moved over to the republican party after LBJ got the Civil Rights ACT passed. It was not right after the Civil rights act went in. The notion that the south moves slow but not that slow is incorrect. The people who shared the same views as George Wallace, Strom Thurman and David Duke are not in the Democratic party today.
