Most Dems were Klan members up till the 1960s. Then they decided they needed black votes and presented themselves as the saviors of blacks. It was a brilliant strategy and they garner 90%plus of the black vote.

LBJ sign the War on Poverty which increased fatherless families from 20% to 73% and climbing. The welfare state destroyed the black family---------- so as far as i am concerned all those southern Dems are still Klan members. And the worst type of racism is the one that HRC practices, the condescending and pandering attitude.

Democrats were the party of slavery and Jim Crow.

And then those Democrats switched over to Republican years later after the Civil Rights gains.

Of course we'd get the party swap fairytale Democrats throw out to deal with their party's racist roots.

It's a lie.

Ever hear of the "telephone game"?

Document doesn't say he may have been a member. It says someone told someone else that another someone else claimed the Klan had something that showed he had once been a member.
