He says the democrats are KKK Because it was democrat Senator Byrd that lead the filibuster to stop him from having civil rights.
Do you think people should not hold Byrd accountable for that? Do you think people should ignore that? It seems to be what you think
So, if we start polling members of the KKK today, they voted how in the last election?
This tendency to dwell on Senator Byrd, who renounced the KKK in more recent years, is about a failed attempt to depict the Democratic Party as racists. LBJ actually worked to expand the Civil Rights Act, alienating the support he had from the South.
he gives republicans credit for freeing the slaves and passing civil rights.
It was democrat Senator Byrd that filibustered this man having civil rights. Do you think he is suppose to vote for the party the man is in that wanted him to not have civil rights
I know this man. He attends the tea party here
He's also ignorant as the day is long he does NOT know his history.
Do you deny what he states about Al Gore's daddy? About the democrats fighting civil rights legislation and it being passed under a Republican controlled Congress? Would you deny the democrat policies toward minorities keeps them in generational welfare? Perhaps this is why the drama with his sign's statement?
Yes I would deny that Democratic policies keeps minorities in poverty but it's a fallacy not based on FACTUAL evidence.
