Because there was more North Republicans than there were Southern Republicans, yet almost no Southern Politician voted in favor of the Civil Rights Act....why do you ignore that obvious fact?

Dems have always supported racism more than Republicans


A greater percentage of Republicans, in both the House and Senate, voted for the Civil Rights Act, than the percentage of Democrats.

House Democrats: 152–96 (61%-39%)
House Republicans: 138–34 (80%–20%)

Senate Democrats: 46-21 (69%-31%)
Senate Republicans: 27-6 (82%-18%)

Even though Democrats were in the majority in both houses, they would not have been able to pass it at all, unless such large majorities of Republicans also voted to pass. Fortunately the Republicans came through and saved the bill from the defeat Democrats alone would have given it.

Democrats have always supported racism. From their founding of the KKK, to their current majority membership in it, to the majority support of racist legislation in Congress even today.

If I were a Democrat, I'd try to fake as many excuses for not associating racism with Democrats as I could, just as the leftists in this thread do. The truth is just too painful for Democrats... as usual.

Which has not appreciably changed today.

Except that, today, it is the Democrats who make laws based on the idea that black people can't make it in life without massive "help" from government... where whites don't need any such help. If anything, Democrats' racism has increased since the 1960s.

More importantly: racist southerners switched to the Republican party when they found it aligned more closely with their views.

Of course they support it. They create it and then benefit from it.

Just like now, they don't really giveresults of n about high unemployment rates of inner city black youth and the results of it, they will exploit it while at the same time insisting that the borders remain unenforced so they can have cheap labor and then they also pander to the illegals and tell them that anyone against billions of impoverished people coming to take jobs for very little pay or coming to get government handouts is just a racist.

False, southerners were against the Civil Rights Act.

That theory has been debunked several times both on this thread and in the forum.

All the racist Democrats in Congress save one remained Democrats until they died.

Try to keep up.

Your first mistake was believing anything Ann Coulter has to say.

You can't attack the substance so you attack the messenger.
