I'll accept that Democrats of the past were the backbone of institutionalized racism, but they had to be voted into office first.
So who are the people that voted the racist Democrats of the Civil Rights into office voting for these days...
The ones who were racist then and still racist now vote democrat unless they bought into the lie that they are selling about wanting to help people. They are not interested in helping minorities and poor people achieve anything except for dependence on them so they can keep their votes.
Maybe I got mixed up. The point I was trying to make is that every Presidential election since 1968, I've noticed that the southern strategy has been used by Republican candidates, appealing to segregationist politicians that were still existent.
Can you give specific examples of this strategy and the segregationists?

Lol... now you're just lying. Find me the last White Supremacist to run under the Democrat banner. I bet I can name more White Supremacist in the last year to run under the Republican banner.
This is how I know Republicans like you are full of chit. Even when it comes to something as easily provable as which party do White Supremacist support, you will still flat out lie...

The funny thing is, you think you have to be white to be a racist and you forget about all the Black Supremacists or whatever you want to call them, like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and the like, who are, of course, democrats. Just the fact that you posted what you did shows your lopsided view of racism.

Lol... so now "Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and the like" voted Democrat in the pre-Civil Rights Era...
I stopped reading this wiki-sh*t-ia after this part:
In American politics, the Southern strategy refers to the Republican Party strategy of gaining political support or winning elections in the Southern section of the country by implicitly appealing to racism against African Americans. Though the "Solid South" had been a longtime Democratic Party stronghold due to the Democratic Party's defense of slavery prior to the American Civil War
You have got to be kidding me. Abraham Lincoln was a Republican. Republicans are the ones who want miniorities and poor people to work hard, be educated, and make something of themselves. Democrats want to give them a hand-out so and make them think they can't make it without the government, wo they will get their votes. NOT being racist means you're "color blind," but democrats see color in just about everything they say and do and try to figure out how to use it to their advantage.
You need to know you can't believe everything you read in wikipedia. The comments are approved by liberals.

From people who have prejudices and perceptions from all sides, but the people who approve the content have proven to me that they are liberal.
I saw on another article today that it said the Civil Rights Act was passed by LBJ and "the democrats," and as I showed you earlier, a higher percentage of Republicans voted for it than democrats.
You should have seen what was happening on wikipedia in the first week or two after the Libya attacks on 9/11/12. I watched the changes and saw their bias exposed day after day. Right after it became known the video excuse was fabricated, it said "media sources" blamed the attacks on a video. I did a search to make sure I wasn't missing it and there was not one single mention of Obama, White House, the administration, president, or even the white house press secretary. It might be there now since everything is coming to light, but I don't know and don't care to waste my time on that site. For that reason, I won't trust wikipedia ever again, but will use it for just another form of reference to weigh against others.
