Who Spencer or Reagan is conservative? I personally don't think Reagan lied about wanting smaller government. I think republicans do sometimes lie about that and Reagan let those in government have their way growing government.

It is not democrats who are flying that flag.
This is anecdotal info. I'm not going to try to deny that there are white Southern racists who are Republicans, just as there are black northern racist Farrakhan supporters who are Democrats. I don't believe that either have great numbers.

What do you think of the arguments in post #1, namely that the shift of the South from D to R was largely a matter of economy that started under Ike, in the 1950s, when the Democratic party was still overtly the party of segregation.

Doubtful.
5k klansman vs 50k Nation of Islam. Is there a single member of the Nation of Islam that votes republican? Doubtful
Minnesota has a member in Congress right now. Racist scumbags.

Which party tells America that the reason Blacks vote Democrat is b/c they're too stupid to think for themselves or that they're just looking for handouts?

Or does that not count as racism in your books?

That's the racist party.
Also democrats are trying to take away their rights, freedoms, liberty and opportunities and culture away. How is it moral and not racist using the government to take things away from white people that they value? Democrats are actually taking these things from all Americans but they sell it as opposing "white supremacy".
