What you "thought" is irrelevant to this conversation..
Your "thought" processes have been on display for some time. I doubt that you have impressed very many people. I could be wrong.

I'll check again, but I believe they are in favor of black people voting.
John Boehner, Eric Cantor, John McCain, Presidents George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush, and Jeb Bush were invited to speak at yesterday's event. Both the Bushs declined due to health reasons, and every other Republican declined because they had other events scheduled. So, yes, several Republicans were given a chance to speak and all declined to do so.No Republicans were invited, including the previous President, so the idea that they want inclusiveness is clearly false. In fact it is a lie.
When the Democrats dominated the South after the Civil War they were far more supportive of discriminatory policies. It was not until the 1960s that northern liberal Democrats were able to change the party's policies on civil rights to make them more friendly to all minorities and steer the party away from their its ugly history.The Democrats have taken over civil rights as their own despite them being against any Black rights for almost 200 years, and they will always ignore the fact that it was a Democrat who murdered Dr. King.
Equal at last, Equal at last, thank God Almighty we are equal at last!
Doesn't quite sound right, does it?
I think the refocusing from gaining freedom to institutionalizing equality is the worst thing to happen to the movement.
If Dr. King were alive today, he'd be dismissed as an Uncle Tom.

Do you have links to that? What about Clarence Thomas? Did he make the list?

They certainly steered some of them away from their racist history but certainly not all.
Well of course the Democrats don;t want to be associated wsith the assassination of Dr.King so they will invent another name for them, like "Dixiecrat".About James Earl Ray being a Democrat, a more apt descriptor for him was a Dixiecrat. He was a fan of self-described conservative George Wallace who, although a Democrat then, sounded more like Republicans do today.
Just read his history with the Democratic Party and how well he did in his Presidential runs. He was called "the most influential loser" in 20th-century U.S. politics" and of course that influence was with the Democrats. No Republican ever sounded like Geirge Wallace. That's just another slur on the people who actually did fight and die for the freedom of Black people. George Wallace - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I see, so the part about blacks being feral savages....well that's just a fact, right?
He didn't say that, but I know you don't care

Here I am. What do you want to know now?
Still waiting for your "opinion." You don't say what it is, then start playing games when someone tries to pin you down on what you said.
Don't change the subject again. You need me to explain to you once more what I said earlier in plain english?
I'm not changing the subject. Whenever someone quotes you, you run to context as your friend. When I read in context, I'm playing games. So tell us what your opinion is rather than being coy.
Go back and read my OP as many times as it takes. It couldn't be any plainer.
I read it over and over again. I still get the same reading. You claim you're just "giving facts." Which isn't an opinion.
Yes? So?
You don't want to discuss the facts. You desperately avoid them.
Facts aren't an opinion. You won't say what your opinion is.
Republicans used to think that sending all the black people back to Africa was the best thing. The race relations on that side aren't exactly pristine. Keep drinking the Kool-Aid though.
Democrats still want to keep all the black people dependent and uneducated. Promise them everything, and do nothing for them. Slavery in a different form.
Yep, that red Kool-Aid sure tastes good doesn't it?
Thanks for the support.
I got suckered into an exchange with ....a poster...recently.... who was purposely baiting me...and then ...a poster..went whining to...a higher authority.
I see how the game is played now.

Republicans absent from March on Washington - The Washington PostDo you have links to that? What about Clarence Thomas? Did he make the list?
Correct. Most were voted out of office, died off, or left the Democratic Party for the Republican Party. Those that did stick around such as Robert Byrd apologized for their past actions and worked to correct mistakes made in the past.They certainly steered some of them away from their racist history but certainly not all.
Dixiecrat is a term that originated during Senator Strom Thormond's run for President in 1948. Since then, historians have used it to describe southern Democrats that sided against civil rights during the 1960s. George Wallace, whom Ray liked, was that type of Democrat.Well of course the Democrats don;t want to be associated wsith the assassination of Dr.King so they will invent another name for them, like "Dixiecrat".
He did so well with the Democratic Party nationally that he came nowhere near the nomination in 1964, had to run as a third party candidate in 1968, and won only two primaries in 1972 after an assassination attempt against his life was almost successful.Just read his history with the Democratic Party and how well he did in his Presidential runs. He was called "the most influential loser" in 20th-century U.S. politics" and of course that influence was with the Democrats.
Speech by George C. Wallace The Civil Rights Movement fraud, sham and hoax 1964 < 1951- < Documents < American History From Revolution To Reconstruction and beyondNo Republican ever sounded like Geirge Wallace.
