    Just another deflection of the violent, racist past of the Democratic Party and its KKK militant arm. Most of the South remained Democrat well into the 90s, exploding the myth that the South "suddenly changed parties" after the CRA. But the myth that racism was the reason the South changed parties over time has been debunked dozens of times on this forum, by myself and others. In long, long threads.

    http://www.politicalforum.com/index...-question-about-the-southern-strategy.378613/

    Here are just a few of the many threads. All LW sources in them have been debunked numerous times here and elsewhere, so don't bother going "a googling" and spamming a bunch of links, been there done that. Just saving us all some time :)

    Perfect, Q.E.D. These threads usually get to the 4th or 5th page before LW tools start calling people who destroy their lie narratives "racist." You did so right out of the gate. You lose.

    Remember folks, ALWAYS have a written record of ANY discussion with a leftist.

    We knew you weren't looking for any honest discussion from the first whiff of your OP. Spare us the feigned objectivity.

    So, are you just assuming a small protest represents almost 62 million people? Can we assume welfare queens and freeloaders represented 65 million people who voted for Obama?

    Is that why Lincoln had to enslave every male of fighting age in the north and coming from the immigrant boats to fight against the south? The biggest revisionist of the civil war are the people who think the north was fighting to abolish slavery.

    Shouldn't the democrat party be torn down along with these statues? Whos to say the statues didn't switch philosophies in the past 100 years too?

    No, see no one switched philosophies. They just switched parties, that's the problem.

    Seriously?

    Many of the new immigrants who you speak of had just recently rejected the aristocratic styled oppression that they had been living under before they came to the US.
    The Irish immigrants were all incensed when the Prince of Wales was greeted with such a warm welcome to the US in 1860.

    The common soldier in the Union ranks viewed the Southern Aristocrats with the same feelings of distain.

    Virginia went for Obama twice, Hillary once, has two democratic Senators and a democratic Governor, Lt. Governor, and Attorney General.
