Yep. Before the 1960s and the Civil Rights movement, the Democratic Party, particularly in the South, was a very racist party. Conservatives ruled the Dems in the South after Reconstruction. The "yahoos" began swithing to the Republican Party in the mid to late 1960s largely because of Nixon's Southern strategy. Between the Civil War and this time, there was no GOP in the South. So, yes, Democrats were very racists and the KKK started and was perpetuated under their watch.

Thema: Re:

Ferris Bueller: And the Democrats STILL issue policies that are racist in many ways. And it's the left that routinely plays the race card. Speak against Obama and you're a racist. Speak against Obama if you are also a black person, and you are an Uncle Tom. This nonsense comes from people on the left. And there are LOTS of them. Obama's base.

Ferris Bueller: I saw Glen Beck yesterday state that there is some racist element in the Tea party. It's no good (in his opinion/fox news opinion) stating there is no racist element as that would be a lie.
