That is historically accurate.

Indeed. But not historically accurate to call them liberals. Quit the contrary. 1860's democrats were not liberal by any stretch. The conservative segregationist Democrats and their legacy of voters now overwhelmingly vote Republican.

Hey buddy, they were democrats until 1948.

Some of them are still registered Democrats. In 1948, Truman ran on a limited civil rights platform which angered the southern conservative Democrats. Truman also issued the executive order to desegregate the military, which further upset the Southern Democrats. Truman was seen as too liberal, which caused them to split from the Democratic Party in 1948 to form the “Dixiecrat” Party to run as a conservative alternative to Truman. Truman won without them. In fact Southern voters who are registered as Democrats, yet vote mainly Republican, are still referred to as Dixiecrats.

I agree, but who is saying the clan were liberal?

No one directly. That's the rub. The way Stormfronters try and frame it is that the Democrats then are the same Democrats now by misrepresentation. SF'ers don't like to trot out liberal or conservative because that's where their argument falls apart. It is a historic fact that the Ku Klux Klan was initially founded by mainly Southern Democratic voters in the aftermath of the Civil War. These weren't liberals. They were conservatives. The sides switched a long, long time ago along with the names.

Not sure how using that term makes a difference. The fact is that the clan was formed by democrats. I'm not trying to smear modern democrats with this association.

Hi buckshot,

The Democrats and repuglicans have traded positions since the 1960's, although the transition took longer and came in spurts.

Swamplizard D' & R's switching places has been covered many, many, many times on these forums. For some reason a few either refuse to believe it or it benefits them to frame it in a different fashion.

I believe one of them (it definitely WAS NOT Buckshot) referred to the clan as "we". Just keep this in mind before entering that rabbit hole.

Here's a question I'm sure you've been asked before. How does that make you feel?

Hi boomerang,

This adds to the sickening feeling that this country is still in the throes of bigotry, when the civil rights movement has paid such a dear price to ensure the equality of all. I felt upon discovery that this had to be shared to hopefully illuminate the Donald supporters just what kind of crowd their candidate appeals.

With that said, if one wishes to support the Donald all one has to do is wait 5 minutes and he will surely make a promise that will resonate with him or her. As we all know, no one is more pro-woman, less racist and more genuine than the Trump.

G' mornin' Fanatical Meat,

I started to post a link to such a thread, but couldn't find it, so decided that addressing it here was appropriate. Now you've got me searching this thread for the response that you mentioned. :(

Nobody cares.

I don't really suggest clicking on these links at work, I just googled some "Storm Front Supports XXX" and got these. It's nothing new that white racists are politically motivated and vote. But, nobody cares.

Looks like Ron Paul had a lot of similar Trump/Racist stuff back in 2007.

How do you feel that he named one of the US's foremost white nationalists to his delegate slate?

I don't care. I don't suffer from the belief that one has to like other races, religions, nationality, or ethnic groups. What everyone has to do is tolerate those they choose to dislike.

Unless the fellow in question is suggesting violence against others, he's welcome to shoot off his mouth in any way he chooses.

Well, no one who isn't a SJW/Liberal cares, save for some undecideds in the Middle. Which is why the '-ist' are being thrown out there for Trump: Gets the base (minus Jhhnn who gets a stiffy anytime Her name is mentioned) who really doesn't care much for Billary fired up against that super bad guy the Media portrays him to be (repeat the -ist as often and as sure sounding as possible!), plus if it can bring some Middle people over to the Billary side, and/or, keep some Middle from going to vote for Trump, all the better!

So, some people care lol...

Astounding that anyone buys into such unadulterated bullshit. The party switch myth is just that, a myth. It was created so democrats can pretend that they've never been racists, that it's always been those evil Republicans.

You apparently know nothing about American political history. Are you from here?

Hi Greenman,

Hardly. The repuglicans can only state that their party, in name only, stretches back to Lincoln. His policies were considered radical in the 1860's, whereas the African-American was equal to his Caucasian counterpart. Fast forward many years and you will find that the GOP platform often defends "States Rights" a code word for racism that the Democrats of old (remember George Wallace??) spouted. The old guard has shifted 180 degrees over time and that is history.
