Look for some Joe Biden quotes.
"The more Negroes who register as Democrats in the South," is not the point. the more blacks that were ALLOWED access to the polls by the VRA and voted Dem, the more white Dem racists, Confederate Dems vs. Lincolns' Federal Yankee Republicans, switched to Repugs, with Repug encouragement/"southern strategy", turning the moderate Republican party interested in actually governing into the extremist, racist Repug party of today wholly not interested in governing, but rather destroying those parts of govt that don't enrich Repugs' paymasters.

Meh. I already regret playing the gotcha game that you seem to like. I personally find it a bit juvenile. You might have some emotional need for it, but I generally don't feel it is productive.
I think there is more than enough evidence that there is a pretty solid core of outright racists within the Republican party, and a subtle undertone of racism in a lot of right-wing rhetoric. To be accurate and honest: not all Republicans are racist.
Again, I will be happy to admit Democrats have their own problems. It is a big party. Even so, they are relatively minor.
On balance though, Republican priorities and policy preferences actively harm people trying to wade out of the historic economic mire that the very blatant racism of our country's past have left a lot of non-whites in. This is the real reason that non-whites vote Democratic, they recognize this instinctively. Republicans, in general, simply do not represent their interests. Not to say Democrats do a perfect job. We don't, and I think we could do a far better job of it.
A good litmus test of this will be the next presidential election, after there is no longer an historic black candidate running.
Nope. I wasn't playing "gotcha," you were. I merely posted hard evidence there are black Democrats that finally see what you refuse or fail to ... That it is Democrat policies that tend to enslave minorities to government dependency. That it is Democrats that have taken the minority vote for granted and, as such, have made promises they can neither keep nor ever intended to, in the first place.
We simply disagree on the point that it is Republicans or conservative policy that is racist. Republican, conservative, and libertarian policies tend to attempt to even the playing field -- ensuring that everyone is judged by the content of their character, instead of the color of their skin. It is only Democrats that claim there are races that should be treated differently.
All those people holding fire hoses in the 60's? Democrats...like Robert "Sheets" Byrd.
I would like to see how you reconcile a Clarence Thomas, Condoleezza Rice, Dr. Ben Carson, Mia Love, or Tim Scott with the notion that it is the Republican or conservative ideology that is racist.
The five black Democrats in the two videos I posted have explained why it is the Democrat or liberal ideology that is racist. And, people like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Barack Obama, and Eric Holder continue to perpetuate the policies and ideology that continues to keep blacks on the "Plantation" of Government Dependency. If they don't vote Democrat, they may lose their Obamaphones.

Dems holding onto this narrative by their fingernails.
narrative? as in revisionist bull ?Repugs as the party wealthy Euro-American racists IS PROVEN HISTORY, and ongoing.
Chris Rock is right: White Americans are a lot less racist than they used to be.

Of course, Chris isn't referring the hard-core racist/xenophobic/nativist red-state, rural base of the Repug party.
boutons and RandomGuy -- birds of a feather
chris rock is a genius. here are some good vids:
The problem with this thread is that many people on SpursTalk (particularly the NBA Forum) are not only racist, but make no pretensions of hiding it.
Yeah, just a historic woman candidate.![]()
black on black crime
That is the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. Thanks.
does this mean if i find an evil person that is a democrat, that i can smear their party and all members of it?
Democrats are child predators...
I'm sorry, I forgot the obligatory, "Not, of course, an elected official, but a Democrat nonetheless."
child predation isn't a Dem strategy
racism, both black and brown, voter suppression/intimidation, gerrymandering IS a Repug strategy.
Racism isn't a Republican strategy
Child predation IS a Democrat strategy.
See how that works, boutons. Anyone can say any they want. Doesn't make it true.
the 2007 housing crisis was caused by the big bad govt CRA forcing banks to write toxic mortages. see how that works?
that you deny: "racism, both black and brown, voter suppression/intimidation, gerrymandering IS a Repug strategy" shows what a Repug/VRWC checkbox propaganda tool you are.
There's tons of evidence that racism is a Repug strategy. What evidence do you think you have the child predation is a Dem strategy?
Your tons of evidence?

a single criminal is NOT a party's political strategy.
goddam, you simple-minded right-wing pricks take all the fun out my slapping y'all.
So, where's your "tons of evidence" Republicans are the party of racists?
You do realize, of course, Bull Conner and George Wallace were Democrats, right? And, you also realize, the KKK was a group of Democrats out to undermine the Republican abolition movement, no?
I'll deal with you later, boy. You're pretty clever, but your right-wing ideology makes you stupid.
And next tell us how Repug Lincoln freed the slaves!![]()

Court tosses case after prosecutor recites pro-slavery ‘Dixie’ song at black man’s lewd conduct trial
POTATO FED! LOL
The Idaho Court of Appeals ruled this week that a prosecutor had inspired enough racism in jurors by citing a pro-slavery Civil War anthem to convince them to unfairly convict a black man.
While prosecuting James D. Kirk in 2013 for felony lewd conduct with a 17-year-old girl and sexual battery of a 13-year-old girl, Canyon County Deputy Prosecutor Erica Kallin paraphrased the lyrics to “Dixie” to make the point that defense attorneys were hoping that jurors would ignore certain evidence, the Idaho Statesmen reported.
“‘Oh I wish I was in the land of cotton. Good times not forgotten. Look away. Look away. Look away,’” Kallin told the jurors. “And isn’t that really what you’ve kind of been asked to do? Look away from the two eyewitnesses. Look away from the two victims. Look away from the nurse and her medical opinion. Look away. Look away.”
