Is the Civil Rights movement what turned the South Republican for 50 years..

It is true that the State Democratic parties held on a little longer by separating themselves from the national party.

They held on for decades dunce; not a little longer. They also held onto the Congress of the United States.

Therefore, your argument and premise are patently false. Thank you for finally admitting the truth.

The claim that Republicans owned the black vote before the CRA is also an outright lie as is the notion that they left the Republican Party because the former racists on the Democratic side switched to the Republicans.

You are simply wrong. Sorry, you lose.

Its simply very clear. The same people, the same majority that supported Democrats until the late 60's began then to support Republicans. What was the major issue that affected the South at that time? What side were the Democrats on and what side were the republicans on?

That is an outright lie. Republicans were never a force in the Southern States and still aren't. I challenge you to prove that Southern States went Republican.

The Democratic Party of the South evolved over time and spread this false narrative and myth in an effort to dupe the American sheeple into thinking Democrats were centrist and for racial equality, and paint Republicans as the party that embraced and welcomed in the former Southern racists into their party in order to retain that which the Democrats desire more than anything else; Political power. It is the party who is filled with dishonest dunces willing to do or say anything to anyone to retain that power by appealing to the simplest emotions rather than doing what is right.

Yay you!

That's an outright lie. Democrats continued holding Governorships and their vast monopoly onCongress decades later. few changed party affiliation and most who were racists and members of the KKK died in office as Democrats. No one switched parties you simple minded dunce. And the claims that they switched to the Republican Party after the CRA is too stupid for words.

Why is it that when bombarded with facts, dunces like you continue engaging in the same retarded rhetoric? Is it because you really are THAT stupid?

no one is saying that all the POLITICIANS became republicans, just the voters... thanks to the very successful Southern Strategy.

Wrong again dunce; I posted the facts. All we have from you is hyperbole and talking points.

Please prove how Republicans took over the south with something more than because you say so. I posted the record of Southern State Governors. The same case can be made with Senators and Representatives.

So by all means; PROVE Republicans dominated Southern politics with something more substantive than because you say so.

Desperation does not look good on you! ROTFLMAO
 
a look at the electoral map will show the GOP's dominance in the south. It used to be true blue, now it;s dead red. And you think that all those Jim Crow loving white racists just "lost" their racism somehow and saw the light?

Dear shit-for-brains; if the politicians stayed in office as Democrats, the voters must have been voting for THEM. I know you have difficulty with the obvious being such a uninformed dishonest hyper partisan.

Please prove with credible FACTS that all these Southerners were Republicans when they VOTED FOR Democrats; the same ones who voted against the CRA and instituted Jim Crow laws.

I'll wait.
 
when the racist southern democrats voted against the CRA, most of the white voters in the south were supportive of those votes. And YOU are the one who thinks that they all somehow grew to hate Jim Crow and love the idea of racial equality. Again... what did Mehlman have to apologize for?

Wrong; you're confused between Presidential elections and Congressional/Gubernatorial elections. Did Jimmy Carter lose the South? No, it was mixed. Did Clinton lose the South? No it was mixed.

Please show me all these racists that switched party and started voting Republican which is the strawman used by the DNC to dupe uninformed sheeple into thinking Republicans suddenly became the party of Southern racists after their overwhelming support for civil rights and historical record fighting for them.

It is beyond stupid and common sense to try to argue that Democratic racists left the Democraric Party to join the party that overwhelmingly supported the CRA. Only idiots can make that leap of logic.
 
the south is nearly solid red now... it used to be solid blue. What HAPPENED to all those southern Jim Crow loving white racists? Did they evaporate? What did Mehlman have to apologize for?
 
maineman said:
my concern here is not necessarily the politicians, but the voters. You are the one who is claiming this mass epiphany whereby southern Jim Crow loving voters all of a sudden became black loving, kumbaya singing folks who HATED Jim Crow and turned against all those racist democrats who had supported it.

I'm not claiming anything of the sort.

But by the same token, one could argue that you're claiming the folks in Boston who rioted against forced busing totally changed stripes by embracing big government and the welfare state.

Newsflash: Love of massive government and big welfare =/= racial enlightment.

No it is not; how do you make such false statements with nothing more than "because you say so?"

They stayed within the party of Racists until their dying days. Unfortunately, facts are not your forte'. Parroting dimwitted talking points is all that you bring to any argument.

again... did you forget to answer the question about Mehlman?

and all of the children of racists are magically transformed into bigotry-free negro loving folks simply by the passage of the CRA?

not at all....they're still Democrats....its just that they only vote for blacks if they're cleaner and more articulate than average.....beyond that, they expect the blacks to be content with having their vote owned by white Democrats.......
 
if they are still democrats, why is the south predominately republican?

Up until the CRA, the white folks in the south LOVED Jim Crow. Now, the same folks love the GOP, thanks to the very successful Southern Strategy.

Let me help you move your baseless argument forward:

Explain how smaller government, fiscal responsibility, respect for the life of the unborn, and military preparedness play upon the alleged pro-Jim Crow sentiments of the South?
