Who can take you seriously after that load of tripe? What's that saying about pointing...and pointing back at you...you've revealed quite a bit about yourself in this little post. Not flattering at. all.
Oh and also, stop spreading the lie about the fake switch...since you seem to get upset about fake things. There was no "switch". That's some baloney line for uneducated, ignorant liberals to spread around.

That's most definitely NOT a lie. I don't care to get into it and discuss it beyond that.
Let's not bring up racism without bringing up Trump now. You've earned TWO fails for that.
Trump still won't be earning the majority of the Black vote.
The topic of the thread was not Trump, it was Hillary. You brought up the great fat lie that has been debunked so many times it's not even remotely amusing anymore that the parties "switched". It is a bald. faced. lie. and only ignorant buffoons continue to spread that manure.
I BEG you to provide proof of Trump's "racism"....since that is not the topic of the thread, feel free to send it to me via PM. OR! Start a thread showing all of the proof of Trump's "racism". Let me give you some help before you embarrass yourself, however: "Mexican" is not a race. "Muslim" is not a race. "Illegal immigrant" is not a race. A KKK member liking him does not make him racist...unless you do want to go down that road in which case Hillary's old "good friend" Sen Byrd being supportive of Hillary would mean she's racist...watch your logic before you spew baloney.

Interesting list. However, I think if you are going to claim these are the people who were in the Senate who voted no on 1964 voting rights act then you should look at the list a little bit closer.
I'm not going to research all the names. However, many of those who did switch parties were not in office in 64/65; like Jesse Helms who participated in racist political campaigns for the Democratic party before switching and running for office as a Republican.
Hot sauce? What has hot sauce got to do with black people? None of my black friends ( and yes, I have more than one ) put hot sauce on everything.
When I was at the Democratic caucus ( for Bernie ) the black voters there were overwhelmingly in the Clinton camp. They were mostly middle aged black females. The Bernie supporters were mostly white and young. Of course, this was only one district, in one state.
My prediction this year is that we are going to have lower voter turnout on behalf of the younger people who are feeling pissed and disenfranchised with the DNC on the democratic side, and lower turnout on the republican side with mainstream republicans who just can't bring themselves to vote for either candidate.
Hot sauce Hillary. Not all black people use hot sauce but many do (probably just as many whites do). When she pulled the bottle out of her purse the 3 black DJ's started laughing and one said "I put that on everything"
I saw the hot sauce as evidence that Hillary was trying to pander to a black person stereotype. It was ridiculous.
Your predictions may come true. Black folk who overwhelmingly vote Democrat are not impressed with Hillary's typical talking down to them. I think they are beginning to question exactly what the Dems have given them over the decades. They are promised the moon and after the election they get nothing.
I think she has become the fall back vote because people really don't like Trump. She is the lesser of 2 evils. They don't like her but they hate Trump.
Obama really got people of all ages excited in 2008. Hillary is no Obama. Trump is a showman and gets the crowds excited but when his own party attacks him (out of jealousy or fear) they are doing nothing but ensuring that Hillary will win.
When it comes to Bernie I think young people liked him due to his socialist stance and a promise of free college and free stuff. Socialism is great until the people who are paying for it run out of money.
