Oh I'm sorry, did you get in to your limited little minds that the Democrats were and always have been great heroes of minorities? Go look up certain quotes from Lyndon Johnson and then come back here.

Nemo's Brother: Donald_McRonald: King's economic bill of rights called for massive government jobs programs to rebuild America's cities. He saw a need to confront a Congress that had demonstrated its "hostility to the poor": appropriating "military funds with alacrity and generosity", but providing "poverty funds with miserliness."

King was a great man and a hero for the cause of freedom, but he wasn't perfect and he was wrong in many aspects. Einstein was smarter than any of us, but he could never figure out how to drive a car with any efficiencies. His mind and body just couldn't connect.

The point wasn't that King said it so it must be true, although I think it is. The point was King was hardly a conservative. He wasn't a militant, and this has lead some conservatives to attempt to claim him, but today he would be regarded as a radical socialist.

randomjsa: Sounds reasonable to me.

the government was overwhelmingly republican, so..kinda a similar situation to the south. they were overwhelmingly of one party because everybody was overwhelmingly of one party.

Let's not forget that for a very long time, Maine had the largest KKK membership in the country, outside of the South. It is less about party, than a means to secure power. The KKK throws their support behind candidates that believe as they do--Democrat or Republican. As David Duke can attest to--starting off Democrat, and staying elected as a Republican State Representative. His philosophy of racial separation has matured over the years, since his early days as a Democrat, and a Grand Wizard of the Klu Klux Klan.

We (white nationalists) desire to live in our own neighborhoods, go to our own schools, work in our own cities and towns, and ultimately live as one extended family in our own nation. We shall end the racial genocide of integration. We shall work for the eventual establishment of a separate homeland for African Americans, so each race will be free to pursue its own destiny without racial conflicts and ill will.

And he's moved on from just questions of race in this country, but abroad, with his 2002 page turner: Jewish Supremacism: My Awakening on the Jewish Question

It is NOT a question of which party has racist asshats. It's what the party does and how much they embrace those policies. Republicans have wandered far from their roots for preserving the Republic, and the rights of all citizens. And with the embrasure of the Southern Strategy, we've embraced some tactics and people who are questionable, at best.

LBJ is basically the only reason the Civil Rights Act passed at all. Without his extremely strong support and his bullying of Congress, that act would never have made it to his desk for his signature. He also pushed through the Voting Rights Act.

Whether he personally was a racist or not, he certainly helped to champion the cause of equal rights.

The problem is that his example is even flawed. Johnson is one of the worst examples out there, considering you're forced to prove (if they ever bothered to do such a thing) that the guy who SIGNED civil rights legislation was 'such a racist'.

This is, however, the same President who would openly talk about his ballsac on the telephone.

Fart_Machine: Phil Herup: Sabyen91: Hehe, THAT is funny.



Why?

Because King was an avowed socialist.

Who voted Republican until 1960. Was Republicanism socialist as well?

Really? Are you really gonna be an idiot too and deny King's socilism?

All I said was that King voted Republican until 1960. Why that makes me an idiot when it's the truth, I have no idea. So congratulations. By resorting to an insult right off the bat with no provocation, you've already lost.

I can prove what I say. You throw insults and apparently think that makes you correct.

From what I've read, King backed Eisenhower in '56, stayed neutral in '60, and flamed the Republicans in '64.

After the nomination of Barry Goldwater for the presidency, King wrote in his Autobiography, "The Republican Party geared its appeal and program to racism, reaction, and extremism. All people of good will viewed with alarm and concern the frenzied wedding at the Cow Palace of the KKK with the radical right. The best man at this ceremony was a senator whose voting record, philosophy, and program were anathema to all the hard-won achievements of the past decade."

Link (new window)

Goldwater's nomination was a great big "Fark you!" to black Americans. The argument that Democrats haven't done enough for the inner cities at the municipal level of government is valid, but when you look at national politics, Northern Democrats--and Northern Republicans--were the ones who used federal power to overcome segregation. A strong federal government is now a fundamental principal for Democratic congressional and presidential candidates; a weak federal government is likewise a fundamental principal for Republican congressional and presidential candidates.

At the university level, we do have the best...but we pay out our asses for it and it would not exist if we didn't have a free market economy that allows us to afford it.
