and republicans now have the support of many of those same racist ideologies and personalities who once were dixiecrats,,,, Just like the Democratic Party used to have the support of the late U.S. Senator Robert Byrd (D-WV), who had been a member of the KKK at one time in his life. Yes, Democrats also have the support of racists. In case you didn't notice, during the 2008 Democratic Party primaries, Democrat supporters of Hillary Clinton were the ones who started the false rumor that Barack Obama wasn't born in the USA. Seriously, can you name one plank in the current national Republican Party platform that is racist? [Disclosure: I am not a Republican.] seriously? bachmann, gingrich, santorum, byrd, limbaugh, coburn, sessions,,,,,, Byrd's seniority and leadership of the Appropriations Committee enabled him to steer a great deal of federal money toward projects in West Virginia.[8] Critics derided his efforts as pork spending[9] to appeal to his own constituents. He filibustered against the 1964 Civil Rights Act and supported the Vietnam War, but later backed civil rights measures and criticized the Iraq War. He was briefly a member of the Ku Klux Klan in the 1940s, but later left the group and denounced racial intolerance |

I had a Black friend who switched over to the Republican party when he started "moving up the ladder" and earning higher and higher salaries...He switched because he felt the GOP would help reduce his taxes...Some of my Caucasian friends switched over to the Republican party through the years too. (For supposed tax advantages. And maybe to appear more "elite." They didn't want to come across as "common folks" anymore.)...I have a Hispanic-American friend who is a staunch Republican. She's Catholic and anti-abortion. Plus she is quite wealthy too...Most of the average income Black people or Hispanic people that I know consider the Republican party an exclusive club for "rich folks.".. Few mention the "Religious Right" aspect of the party.

Few mention the "Religious Right" aspect of the party. this is true of most bllack people I know as well, and there are those for whom the religious right is appealing (I am one of those too) I personally, dont consider many of the religious issues relevant to what government, and particularly the president, have any real impact upon unlike other issues like education, healthcare, security, immigration, employment/unemployment,, which become more of a prirority for me , even though I still dont abandon my religious beliefs,,, |
