Re: You must have missed the Historical Revision briefings
Actually, you forget, there was a huge split in the Democratic party when the 'liberal' Democrats wanted to reform the racist aspects of the party. As a result, a lot of the old southern segregationists left the party and became republicans....
Racism used to be the status-quo in this country... I think there is plenty of blame to go around for all the parties.
We still have Racism of all flavors and colors here in the US... Its practically a national sport. White, Black, Dem, Rep.... Lott, Sharpton, Byrd, Thurmond....
