    You should demonstrate more self pride rather than parroting this nonsense. Do some genuine investigating and read the history. Here's a starter.

    If you want a genuine racist strategy check out LBJ.

    I have researched it. Are you saying that Nixon's southern strategy is a myth and that the Dixiecrats were not absorbed into the Republican Party due to their anger over the passing of civil rights laws? If that is the case, how did those racist southern democrats become republicans, and why? Also, where did all of the information regarding Nixon's Southern Strategy come from if it is not factual? Who manufactured such stories and passed them off as believable history?

    That's right. How many Dixiecrats (Democrats) were there and how many were absorbed into the Republican Party? How many changed their party affiliation?
    There's no evidence that they did. Again, who were they and what are the numbers?
    The Democratic left. You saw this most recently with the "Russian Collusion" investigation with Nancy Pelosi and her fellow Democrats claiming there would be a 'Constitutional Crisis" should Devin Nunes even release his notorious memo. Now we know that the potential 'crisis' wasn't with the Constitution but with the lying Democrats. It's not just a matter of 'fool me twice' but fooling their followers repeatedly over the decades.

    Those are subject not objective assertions, without any support.

    The 'Southern Strategy' is a widely accepted historical phenomenon opposed by only a few extremists on the right. Those who support its denial cannot do so with objective evidence.

    Wow. Someone making sense out of all this weirdness. You are, of course, correct.

    Btw, Devin Nunes is a bad joke in any situation. Invoking anything he has said or done removes any veracity the issue in question may have held.

    Not many blacks get into the corporate world compared to whites. There are more than 9x the number of whites with bachelor’s degrees than blacks, and that is the ticket into corporate America. It’s expected for there to be one black for every nine or ten whites.

    Bachelor’s degrees are available to almost anyone. They’re very inexpensive if you go to a junior college and then a public four year school.

    How can someone deny something that happened within memory of people who are still living? It's not as though it were ancient history. Smh. Between their rampant conspiracy theories and twisting of inconvenient truths, the R.W. has totally embraced the new Retrumplican ideology of repeating the same lies over and over, in the hopes it will eventually be accepted as Truth.

    Which assertion do feel is incorrect?
    I just asked for the evidence and it hasn't been forthcoming. If you have the answers to the questions I've raised please post them.

    It's 'widely accepted'? What does that say for the enquiring minds of leftists? They casually accept these myths as truth and go on to repeat them. It really is disgraceful.

    This is what leftists of the future will believe.

    "When our party was boldest, the time of the New Deal, the Great Society, the Civil Rights Act… we had a period of super majorities in the House and the Senate, we had the presidency. They had to amend the constitution of the United States to make sure Roosevelt did not get re-elected,” claimed Cortez during a town hall event hosted by MSNBC.

    AOC does not know Roosevelt died in office but how many leftists will now accept her version as 'historical evidence'?

    To my knowledge... AL Gore SR never became a Republican. Neither did his son. George Wallace never became a republican. So many examples.. so little time. The democratic party still owns the plantation. We see it in literally EVERY policy they trot out, and defend. Why you would think that folks are blind to that.. just baffling. Folks do pay attention. The age of the plantation are numbered.

    Share facts rather than your feelings and you may be taken more seriously.

    Arguments above deny the Southern Strategy. That assertion is based on feelings and propaganda, and no facts have been offered.

    Until proof positive is offered, an assertion does not require it to be refuted with evidence.

    We can hope those days are numbered. George Wallace had a very good campaign as a Democrat, won 5 states in the south and was doing very well in the north until he was shot.

    You have it reversed. The claim is that there was a Southern Strategy but without proof that the Democrats fled to the Republican Party. How can anyone be expected to prove a negative?

    The claim was above that there was not a Southern Strategy, so that has to be supported first.

    Wallace did very well for a conservative Democrat, yes, in the campaign.

    I am waiting, Fred, for you to offer solid evidence there was not a Southern Strategy.

    Yeah that's true. It said to is the trade on morning at the moment you can almost go to school for free because the industry is so desperate for people. And you could it's not quite just barely get into six figures.

    History is on the side of my "claims". You, on the other hand, are playing the juvenile in this by denying inconvenient truths. Keep insisting that lies are the truth tho; it seems to work for Trump with the less educated so you may have some luck with it. And if I were you, I would leave old Devin Nunes right out of the conversation. He has lost any veracity he may have had long ago, even RW conspiracy nuts must see him as a joke after all of his ridiculous lies and redundant memos.
