[quote][b]“I’m here to say to you that we have been trained to vote in a specific manner…[/b][/quote]
"I'll have these N***rs voting Democrat for the next 200 years"- former US President Lyndon Baines Johnson, actual quote in regards to civil rights, and the start of widerspread public welfare projects like housing and unemployment.

People forget that Democrats were the party of Jim Crow and slavery.

That's like saying Britain is imperialistic because they had an empire a while ago. Need I remind you that the Republican Party was progressive in its early days? Not that I don't think that LBJ was a manipulative, racist bastard.

right... and you realize Lincoln eventually planned on shipping the slaves back to africa? the "everyone's hero" of the civil war has numerous quotes in office where he had no intention of giving freedmen any rights.

Shit the public education system never taught people lol

Oh I'm sorry, I meant to reply that to Frank. Disregard that, it has little to do with your original post.

oh it has plenty to do with it.

Edited by Yvonne: 12/23/2013 3:55:10 AMIt's not in the same context, actually. I was fact-checking someone else's logical fallacy, not starting an argument. The LBJ quote is much more recent, and therefore still rings true to Democratic policy.

not to mention they were behind a LOT of the racism that was in the culture and still are. racebaiting and race based politics has been in use by democrats for well over a century.

Edited by Frnksnbns: 12/22/2013 6:10:47 AMBtw, along the same lines is the Democratic push for "immigration reform" which is just code for amnesty. The Democrats want to legalize 11 million illegals because the majority will vote Democratic. Frankly Obamacare and the expansion of Medicaid is the same thing. Give the people free stuff, get them hooked, and you get their votes. The cool thing about that town hall meeting was seeing so many people start to realize that they may be being used.

it's sad how many people would ignore this thread because of who the OP is.
