I can understand why the Democrat Left wants to destroy, hide, and change history. We need to study and learn from history.
The Democrat Party was the pro slavery
party. This led to the formation of the
Republican Party, the election of
The 13th Amendment abolished slavery. 100% of the Republicans in Congress and only 22% of Democrats supported it.
The 14th Amendment granted citizenship and equal civil and legal rights to African Americans and previous slaves. The 15th Amendment granted African American men the right to vote. 100% of the Republicans in Congress supported both Amendments. Not one Democrat did.
The
Ku Klux Klan was born and thrived in the Democratic south. This led to the lynching of blacks in the
south. The Jim Crow laws limiting rights
of blacks were all passed in Democrat controlled southern states.
Unions
have always backed the Democrat Party.
This dates back to the early days of unions. Do you remember the saying, “Union Made?” The original slogan was, “Union Made by White
Men”. The words WHITE and MEN were meant
literally.
Equal
rights bills were started by President Eisenhower, but blocked by Democrats in
the Senate. Lyndon Johnson was a leading
Senator in that fight.
When
John F. Kennedy ran for President, he picked LBJ as his running mate for two
reasons. They wanted someone from the south
and he wanted Johnson out of the Senate so Johnson would not be blocking civil
rights legislation.
When
JFK was assassinated and Johnson became President, he had no choice but to sign
the civil rights bill into law. Johnson
was smart enough to use the event to empower the Democratic Party. Johnson told several southern Democratic
Governor’s, “We’ll have those _____
N_____’s voting Democrat for a hundred years. It has worked for over fifty years, but I
hope that is changing.
Johnson’s
War on Poverty was actually a strategy to destroy the individual and family in
poor minority neighborhoods, and enslave them to a life of welfare. The Democrat Party has continued to use
identity politics to divide the country and gain power. Maintaining power and increasing the size and
control of government has been their only goal.
There
was a time when the Democrat Party was considered the party of the “little guy”
and this was true for white males. That
is no longer the case. It is now the
party of rich oligarchs with no consideration for the American people.
The
damage Democratic policies are doing to the American People is clearly not a
concern. Policies relating to the
pandemic, immigration, law and order, energy, and gun rights clearly show no
consideration for the facts or the best interests of the American people. I pray it is not too late to correct this
lunacy.
