And when the civil rights bill was passed, I read that those who were racist moved to the Republican party.. A complete switch over.
Are there those in the Democratic party who are still racist... yes.. are there those in the Republican party who are racist.. yes. It's too close to the events of change for any party to say "we have eradicated racism from our ranks"..
Also.. It seems that as a recoil of the civil rights bill and other matters of the time the Republican element have done their best to blame everything on the federal government and when in power have scuppered federal depts in order to prove themselves right.
..... those on the far right need to understand that the destruction of the USA is not through socialism, but through their want of the USA as a country failing to prove themselves right. I find this a selfish attitude.
