How could the Democratic Party rewrite history like this:

Articles: The Secret Racist History of the Democratic Party

And, how could everyone ( blacks and whites) be so fooled?

1- I am pretty sure there's 100+ threads about this already.

2- I don't think it's a secret that the democratic party was once for slavery and the republicans were the anti-slavery party.

3- I'm not sure of the agenda of your post - but I can almost assure you, you will not sway one voter from one side to the other.

4- Watch how quickly liberals explain how the democrats and republicans have reversed roles and/or have changed/evolved since the days of slavery.

I'm not sure why well-known history is such news to you, but oh well. You must have done a lot of sleeping - or something - in history class.

BTW, I support the party for its positions *today*, not the ones it held the day I was born.

That's a riot. The parties never switched ideologies at all. Just people.

There have been threads on this in the past - because I started one, but not hundreds of threads. This is not common knowledge to many who are new to focusing on politics. It is not in history class.

Shrug. Depends on your history class, I guess.

I was in high school during the early sixties, and we did indeed talk about it, since it was live news for us.

Mid 80's for me - wasn't discussed. I would be shocked if it is discussed today.

forgiveness is restricted to the democrat party which is no more as it is the socialist party using the shell of the former democrat party.


We await the name change for the party that can do no wrong
