Demoratic Party-Home of Zombies!

[metis]

In fact, Biden and Kamala can be compared to Frankenstien and his bride!

Kamala claims to be an Afro-American. Judge for yourself.

Ask Biden about race and his past offensive remarks about Vitanmese refugees.

It really is ashame that the democrats have not chosen a viable opposition Candidate. It is going to be another Trump electoral victory by a landslide

These are leftist with no sense of history.

I always find it amusing that people refer to Republicans as rascist,when in fact Southern Democrats historicaly blocked civil rights laws.

The above is all a joke, right?

BTW, with the last item, after the Civil Rights Acts in the 1960's were passed, "Southern Democrats" en masse converted over to the Republican Party over the next couple of decades. It's also why the KKK and those who believe in white supremacy overwhelmingly support Trump. And you might check this out from a non-partisan source: Racial views of Donald Trump - Wikipedia

However, my guess is that you really won't check it out.

So why is it republicans who revere confederate flags and statues?

He's another one of the history revisionists who believe the American south was progressive in 1860

Fact check: Democrats hold Senate filibuster record, 75 days in 1964

Democrats held the nation’s longest filibuster for 75 days to attempt to prevent the passing of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

Yep, southern democrats weren't fans of the civil rights act. They preferred segregation, states rights, etc. The south wasn't progressive in 1964. Wasn't progressive in 1860 either.

In American politics, the Southern strategy was a Republican Party electoral strategy to increase political support among white voters in the South by appealing to racism against African Americans.[1][2][3] As the civil rights movement and dismantling of Jim Crow laws in the 1950s and 1960s visibly deepened existing racial tensions in much of the Southern United States, Republican politicians such as presidential candidate Richard Nixon and Senator Barry Goldwater developed strategies that successfully contributed to the political realignment of many white, conservative voters in the South who had traditionally supported the Democratic Party rather than the Republican Party. It also helped to push the Republican Party much more to the right.[4]

They're just there to keep the slaves on the plantation.

The point being, historically it has been the democrats who are the real racist, starting withW:Wilson.

It was the Dixiecrates on the way to become Republicans all accross the South.

Southern Democrats - Wikipedia.

Southern Democrats are members of the U.S. Democratic Party who reside in the Southern United States.

In the 19th century, Southern Democrats were whites in the South who believed in Jacksonian democracy. In the 1850s they defended slavery in the United States, and promoted its expansion into the West against northern Free Soil opposition. The United States presidential election of 1860 formalized the split in the Democratic Party and brought about the American Civil War. Stephen Douglas was the candidate for the Northern Democratic Party, and John C. Breckinridge represented the Southern Democratic Party, Abraham Lincoln, who opposed slavery was the Republican Party candidate. [1] After Reconstruction ended in the late 1870s so-called redeemers controlled all the Southern states and disenfranchised blacks (who were Republicans). The "Solid South" gave nearly all its electoral votes to Democrats in presidential elections. Republicans seldom were elected to office outside some Appalachian mountain districts and a few heavily German-American counties of Texas.

The monopoly that the Democratic Party held over most of the South first showed major signs of breaking apart in 1948, when many white Southern Democrats, upset by the policies of desegregation enacted during the administration of Democratic President Harry Truman, created the States Rights Democratic Party, which nominated South Carolina Governor Strom Thurmond for President. The "Dixiecrats" won most of the deep South (where Truman was not on the ballot). The new party collapsed after the election, while Thurmond became a Republican in the 1960s. Following the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965, which were signed by President Lyndon B. Johnson, although a southern Democrat himself, led to heavy opposition from both Southern Democrats and Southern Republicans. Subsequent to the passage of civil rights legislation, many white southerners switched to the Republican Party at the national level. Many scholars argue that Southern whites shifted to the Republican Party due to racial conservatism.[2][3][4] Many continued to vote for Democrats at the state and local levels, especially before the Republican Revolution of 1994. In 2000–10, Republicans gained a solid advantage over Democrats at all levels of politics in most Southern states.

My response was to point out that the democrats are the ones who keep saying, "voting for a 3rd party is throwing away your vote." They are basically keeping the slaves on the plantation (upper right sector) by doing this.

I will enjoy watching your comments AFTER the election...if you still have anything to say.

Not the last 50 years.
That changed when conservatives decided to start voting republican. (see southern strategy)

Prior to that, the southern democrat party was very racist. Party of KKK, slavery, etc.
The racism goes wherever the conservative goes.
In history, conservatives voted demokkkrat. Then they voted republikkkan.
If conservatives never voted demokkkrat in the past, the party would never have been part of racism or slavery. Don't you understand that? No where are progressives involved. Only conservatives.

"Slaves on the plantation" refers to the conservative demokkkrat party. Why would democrats today say anything about "slaves on a plantation?" The only people I hear talking about the democratic plantation are RW gossip queens like Hannity and Rush.
Those 2 clowns will never tell you that the demokkkrats were conservatives.

Even as a non American person it is easy to see that Republicans saying bad things about Democrats, and that the Republicans blaming Democrats for what Republicans actually stand for them self. It's opposite negativity because know they have no solid plan for 2020. So they blame Democrats for their own fault. Trump is expert on blaming others for his own fault and short coming, plus trumps kindergarten mentality of speaking bad about everyone who does not agree with him. Name calling and false speech..

Dang it, and I said I was not going to comment on political topic in RF anymore....

It is the conservatives of the South that made every effort to keep the slaves on the plantation regardless of the party theey called themselves.

Acturally false, both parties abhore third parties when it hurts their chances for election.In the 1948 election it was the Dixie crates of the South that form a third party to run Strom Thurmond, and it splite the conservative vote.. It was of course fruitless when Woodrow Wilson won the election anyway.

. . . and they became the Dixiecrates and morphed into the the Republicans of the South.

Have you made a survey of Republicans?

Are you honestly suggesting that it's republicans who support BLM and the removal of confederate flags and monuments from state flags and land?

Trying to draw such parallels is disingenuous and desperate.

lolololz! Do I look like a right wing gossip queen? I do agree with you that the Biden/Harris Democrat ticket is conservative, through and through.

Have you done a survey? What Republicans have you spoken to?Mississippi, a very conservative state changed their state flag and got rid of the rebel flag.
