you are so full of shit!! talk about trying to re-write history!! yes, dickhead, the racist traitor south in 1965 was ran almost exclusively by democrats, and almost all were dead solid racists. but the few republicans that had any state or federal office in the south WERE EVEN MORE RACIST!!! stupid shit.
This is from the National Platform of the Democratic Party in 1964-
Democracy of Opportunity
The variety of our people is the source of our strength and ought not to be a cause of disunity or discord. The rights of all our citizens must be protected and all the laws of our land obeyed if America is to be safe for democracy.
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 deserves and requires full observance by every American and fair, effective enforcement if there is any default.
This new law impairs the rights of no American; it affirms the rights of all Americans. Its purpose is not to divide, but to end division; not to curtail the opportunities of any, but to increase opportunities for all; not to punish, but to promote further our commitment to freedom, the pursuit of justice, and a deeper respect for human dignity.
We reaffirm our belief that lawless disregard for the rights of others is wrong—whether used to deny equal rights or to obtain equal rights.
We cannot and will not tolerate lawlessness. We can and will seek to eliminate its economic and social causes.
True democracy of opportunity will not be served by establishing quotas based on the same false distinctions we seek to erase, nor can the effects of prejudice be neutralized by the expedient of preferential practices.
The immigration laws must be revised to permit families to be reunited, to welcome the persecuted and oppressed, and to eliminate the discriminatory provisions which base admission upon national origins.
We will support legislation to carry forward the progress already made toward full equality of opportunity for women as well as men.
We will strive to eliminate discrimination against older Americans, especially in their employment.
Ending discrimination based on race, age, sex, or national origin demands not only equal opportunity but the opportunity to be equal. We are concerned not only with people's right to be free, but also with their ability to use their freedom. We will:
Carry the War on Poverty forward as a total war against the causes of human want.
Move forward with programs to restore those areas, such as Appalachia, which the Nation's progress has by-passed.
Help the physically handicapped and mentally disadvantaged develop to the full limit of their capabilities.
from the GOP platform of 1964-
Discord and Discontent
This Administration has exploited interracial tensions by extravagant campaign promises, without fulfillment, playing on the aspirations of the minority groups, encouraging disorderly and lawless elements, and ineffectually administering the laws.
It has made Federal intervention, even on the Presidential level, a standard operating practice in labor disputes, thus menacing the entire system of free collective bargaining.
It has resorted to police state tactics, using the great power of Federal Departments and agencies, to compel compliance with Administration desires. The Department of Justice, in particular, has been used improperly to achieve partisan political, economic, and legislative goals. This abuse of power should be the subject of a Congressional investigation.

bullshit cherry picking lies about the civil rights act votes, typical of lying ass trump stooges who actually try to act like they are not racist, and democrats are. what a chickenshit bitch you must be.
the reason the OVERALL numbers of democrats voting against the Civil Rights Act is so high is because THE RACIST TRAITOR SOUTH WAS SO COMPLETELY DOMINATED BY THE DEMOCRATS, AND MOST SOUTHERN DEMOCRATS WERE RACIST ASSHOLES.....duh....but the very few repubs elected in the racist south WERE EVEN MORE FUCKING RACIST, BITCH...NOT ONE OF THEM VOTED FOR IT!! AND THERE WERE ONLY 10 REPUBLICAN HOUSE MEMBERS IN ALL THE CONFEDERATE STATES PUT TOGETHER!! 10...AND ONLY ONE REPUB SENATOR...AND THEY ALL VOTED AGAINST...ALL OF THEM...AGAINST....

actually, stupid fuck, ike was a great president, and the GOP at the national level were not against civil rights as much as they were just not that adamant about making it happen, like the democrats at a national level. but Ike was reluctant to use federal force to make any state integrate schools, as a lot of republicans also felt, that is was a states rights issue, but after the Supreme Court decision saying schools must integrate, Ike, being a great president, carried out his duty to obey the Constitution.
Days before the school year started, the governor of Arkansas Orval Faubus, a segregationist, announced on September 2, 1957, that he would order the state’s National Guard to surround Central to prevent the black students from entering, under the guise of protecting them from mob violence. In response, Federal Judge Ronald Davies issued a ruling the very next day, mandating that integrated classes would proceed as court ordered.
But on September 4, when the black students, historically known as the Little Rock Nine, faced a vicious throng outside Central, they were denied entry by armed troops in the Arkansas National Guard. Images of the African American students being screamed at, heckled and spat on, made national and international news.
The intense stand-off continued over several weeks as the National Guard continued to surround the school in defiance of Judge Davies’s ruling. To discuss a solution, Governor Faubus visited President Eisenhower at his retreat in Newport, Rhode Island. Eisenhower faced a complicated predicament: He believed in adhering to the Constitution, but he wasn’t outwardly passionate about civil rights and didn’t speak in support of the Brown ruling.
“He wasn't that enthusiastic about the Supreme Court's decision and equivocated in public,” said John A. Kirk, a history professor at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock and author of Beyond Little Rock: The Origins and Legacies of the Central High Crisis. “He didn’t put a strong backing to it.”
Eisenhower and Faubus agreed that the Arkansas National Guard would remain at the school to maintain order, so the black students could attend.
When the governor returned to Arkansas, however, he removed the National Guard troops from Central and left security to the local police. As the Little Rock Nine made another attempt to enter on September 23, they had to use a side entrance because a belligerent mob of 1,000 had formed outside. When a riot erupted, the police had to evacuate the black students for their safety. The mayor of Little Rock, Woodrow Mann, called on the president to intervene.
The news incensed Eisenhower. “He was a military man and didn’t want his orders undermined,” said Kirk. “He felt Faubus had been insubordinate.” The president was also concerned the riots compromised the credibility of the United States, as a leader of democracy and a nation of laws during the Cold War era.
On September 23, President Eisenhower issued Executive Order 10730, which put the Arkansas National Guard under federal authority, and sent 1,000 U.S. Army troops from the 101st Airborne Division to Little Rock, to maintain order as Central High School desegregated.
