Dumb.    1964: Lyndon Johnson essentially divorces the longest marriage the democratic party had: the one with southern whites.  By making Civil Rights part of the Democratic platform, the republicans lose basically all of what's left of their black constituencies - which had been a significant part of their remaining progressive vote in northern urban areas.  The democrats start to hemorrhage southern whites rapidly - you see George Wallace run for president in 1968.

He did a good job on his history.  Unfortunately, the Democrats haven't done as well by america's black family/population, imo.  I will admit that I've no idea if this was their original plan back in 64, but I do think it's their plan now, for blacks, whites, browns, yellows and reds.  It seems obvious to me the Dems want as many depending on the Govt as they can get.  If I'm right, think about why they would want that.  A child depends on his parents.  Parents control the child.  

Understand, this is just my opinion.  This post is not an attempt to put down anyone (except the elitist).  What I'm really hoping is that it'll make you think about this, because it'll get worse when they're back in power, if I'm right.  At some point, it may get bad enough you'll remember this post, and realize what's happening so you can educate others, if I'm right, and it's not to late.

You do realize that all those against the civil rights movement were Democrats?!   George Wallace was a Democrat.  You do also realize that the KKK was the police arm of the Democratic Party?!  So, let's not, again, try to revise history!

We all know which party the KKK supports in 2017. They are well represented.

How about you name some of these people? You've been asked this same question many times and have yet to offer an answer. Why the bold statement but silence on proof?

And why no more talk of Trump being racist? Did you finally figure out the man is not a racist, or did you always know he wasn't but tried to play the race card anyway? Is this your go-to tactic? Proof is piling.

Englebert- from his perspective, ANYONE who is a conservative and/or republican is automatically a racist and automatically is heartless.  Prime example of indoctrination without awareness.

What I find hilarious and disturbing at the same time is he throws out these baseless claims, gets called on them, then refuses to answer, but will continue to throw out these same falsehoods. Anyways, it's fun for me (and many on the board). We get to think up different and creative ways to ask him to back up his claims. I know the exercise is futile, but it's still fun. I have to hand it to him, he keeps coming back even though he's been called out numerous times. I personally couldn't be embarrassed that many times and dare keep returning. I must have too much pride.

      noticed that 99.99% of law enforcement sides with Trump? The part of the judicial system who disagrees with Trump is the prosecutors and judges….and it’s certainly not all of them either. Good thing he has the judges that really count on his side.

      What news station do you watch?…..never mind.    What age are the children you take care of. Refugees from where? Are they in a hospital? Now children compared to criminals…..geeeez. The mayor of Denver and a few governors, including Newsom, have said they will not turn over incarcerated criminals to ICE. This is a felony. They are harboring criminals and fugitives. Gee, I’m so glad you want criminals protected. Anyone who crossed illegally into our country is a criminal. Happy Holidays to you and yours.

      Are they offering refuge to criminals? Or is it a Trump talking point? Refugees are people who leave their country due to unwarranted prosecution. I actually take care of 2 refugee kids who have complex medical needs   No, refugees are not criminals, and the assumption that they are more likely to be criminals than the general population is incorrect:                                                                                          Research shows immigrants commit crimes at lower rates Immigrants in the United States commit crimes at lower rates than the U.S.-born population, including unauthorized immigrants. This is true across immigrant groups.                  Immigration doesn't raise crime rates Immigrants don't raise crime rates in the communities where they settle. In fact, some studies suggest that immigration can lower crime rates, especially violent crime.                  Anti-immigration politicians have spread a myth Anti-immigration politicians have repeatedly tried to link immigrants to crime, but research shows this is a myth.                  Refugees don't cause crime in Turkey A study found that refugees don't have a causal effect on crime rates in Turkey. In fact, the study found that refugees may have a negative effect on crime rates per capita.
