Do democrats have a history of helping minorities?

[Freewill]

Do Democratic policies create an unhealthy dependency upon the federal government? Hell yes. I have explained many times exactly how they do that. I am not just some piss drinking parrot like so many of the alleged right wingers here. I actually provide evidence for my points.

But you are seriously kidding yourselves if you think anyone believes the Republican party loves blacks and homosexuals and Mexicans and Muslims or any other non-Christians. You are seriously dense in the head if you think anyone is that stupid.

Why would any minority vote for a party which so clearly HATES them?

But the most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly and with unflagging attention. It must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over. Here, as so often in this world, persistence is the first and most important requirement for success.

You said this is the GOP plan going forward
That was something Nixon said...so give us a break and stay on topic of the thread if you can, which is
Do democrats have a history of helping minorities?

The OP bragged about Republicans helping minorities. Can't you read? So I am on topic, idiot.

I merely countered that if you have to go back 50 years or more to find evidence your party loves blacks and homosexuals and Mexicans and Muslims and other non-Christians, then you have a problem.

Everyone knows the GOP is infected with old school bigots who HATE minorities. There is no amount of ancient smoke and misdirection that will fool anyone into not recognizing that reality.

Seeing as republicans freed slaved from Democrats....Republicans created the NAACP....Republicans continuously pushed for EQUAL treatment of Minorities which democrats like Wilson and FDR reversed...There is no history of democrats doing anything good for minorities....Hell even with the passage of the 1964 civil rights act which wouldn't have passed if it wasn't for republicans because the majority of democrats voted no was only signed be LBJ so he could "Get those ******* voting democrat for 200 years".


This is why the progressives wanted our schools under their control.....Even our Black President is nothing more then a puppet to the rich white democrats.

LBJ picked upthe CivilRights banner of his predecessor JFK for purely political reasons, he and his fellow Deomocrats, with the x\exccluson of JFK who was now dead - had no great love for minorities. In fact they were and still are the guys in the white hoods.

Democratic Strategists, of whom Johnson was one, realized the importance of the Negro vote and in this light Johnson explained the strategy re: the Republican Civil Rights Act of 1957 to his Democratic co-conspirators:


These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now, we've got to do something about this; we've got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. for if we don't move at all, then their allies [The Republicans] will line up against us and there will be no way of stopping them, we'll lose the filibuster and there will be no way of putting the brake on all sorts of wild legislation, it'll be reconstruction all over again - Lyndon Johnson




Civil Rights act 1964 Only 61 percent of Democrats supported that bill, versus 80 percent of Republicans.

Voting Rights Act of 1965 - Written by Republican Senator Everett Dirksen - 94 percent of Senate Republicans voted in favor of the bill versus 73 percent of Democrats. The final vote on the House version - only one Senate Republican voted against it compared to seventeen Democrats.


In an effort to rationalize the Black support of Democrats, Nixon's infamous "Southern Strategy" is constantly referenced , less well remembered are Woodrow Wilson's segregation of the Federal civil service; The ascension of Robert Byrd, former member of the KKK, one time President pro tempore of the Senate, and third in line for presidential succession .

Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds. - Democratic Senator Robert Byrd

Democrats condemn Nixon for his infamous Southern Strategy, yet looked the other way when the racially segregated South voted solidly for Democrats for over a Century.

Democratic Parties Racist History

JFK Voted NO on the civil rights bill in 1957... He was just as racist as all of them were

He was a politician first, and he realiazed he importance of the Black Vote. But Thank You, for the info on JFK and the 1957 Eisenhower bill - I wasn't aware of that.

LBJ had consistently voted against any legislation to protect Blacks from lynching, worked vigorously to stifle the Civil Rights Act of 1957. Lacking sufficient votes to defeat it, he did manage to water it down before it was returned to Eisenhower.

Another Democrat, Strom Thurmond picked up the torch from Johnson and performed the longest filibuster in history in an unsuccessful attempt to keep the bill from passing at all. Lyndon Johnson, dubbed by some as the master of the Senate conspired with the Kennedy liberals to credit Johnson for having seen to the laws passage while simultaneously boasting to southern Democrats that he had rendered the legislation impotent.

Everyone knows the GOP is infected with old school bigots who HATE minorities.

The Democratic party has come to the realization that you can actually enslave an entire race of people and not call it slavery? Liberal Democrats have reintroduced slavery to the African American Community through so called social welfare programs.

....The welfare state has done to black Americans what slavery couldn't do, what Jim Crow couldn't do, what the harshest racism couldn't do,.... And that is to destroy the black family.

The Democrats in the old days who opposed equality for minorities were conservatives. When they weren't burning the Christian cross on people's lawns or lynching negroes, they were defending states rights, bashing communism, and demanding low taxes.

Democratic conservatives.


See, that's the reality the modern day conservatives in the GOP who oppose equality for minorities would like to misdirect you away from.

The bigots infecting the Right bash gays and Mexicans and Muslims all the live long day, every fucking day, and then exclaim how unjust it is to attack the party of Lincoln.

It's bullshit. No one is fooled.

Clean up our side of the street, assholes. Stop covering for the bigots who are infecting the Grand Old Party.

That's what I'm doing, you gutless fucks.

I'm going to let you in on a secret, you poor misled fool.

The Democratic Party is attempting to enslave everyone to the government, not just blacks.

This business about claiming Democrats are enslaving blacks is just a really, really stupid way of hiding the bigots infecting the Right.

 

[g5000]

The next time one of you alleged right wingers are bashing gays or Muslims or Mexicans or blacks, remember how hard you tried to pretend the GOP loves minorities.

Yeah.

I honestly don't know why the mounting schizophrenic contradictions in your rhetoric don't cause your heads to explode from cognitive dissonance.

Do Democratic policies create an unhealthy dependency upon the federal government? Hell yes. I have explained many times exactly how they do that. I am not just some piss drinking parrot like so many of the alleged right wingers here. I actually provide evidence for my points.

But you are seriously kidding yourselves if you think anyone believes the Republican party loves blacks and homosexuals and Mexicans and Muslims or any other non-Christians. You are seriously dense in the head if you think anyone is that stupid.

Why would any minority vote for a party which so clearly HATES them?

Clearly hates Coni Rice. Clearly hates Colin Powell. Clearly hates Herman Cain. Clearly hates a host of other blacks that have left the DNC plantation. Keep repeating the lie.

"Do Democratic policies create an unhealthy dependency upon the federal government? Hell yes."

Well for once we agree. The alternative to hurting the black community is not hating the black community as you so like to rant. What YOU admit that the democrat policies have done is in fact hate. LBJ said that he had to give them a little something what he did realize is that little something would turn into a little something...a little something...a little something. He didn't realize the consequences of his racism.

IF, as the lying flying monkeys like to say, Nixon's southern strategy was steeped in racism then let's look at this record.

This is what the alleged southern racist got for their vote:

•raised the civil rights enforcement budget 800 percent;

•doubled the budget for black colleges;

•appointed more blacks to federal posts and high positions than any president, including LBJ; (Until GWB)

•adopted the Philadelphia Plan mandating quotas for blacks in unions, and for black scholars in colleges and universities;

•invented “Black Capitalism” (the Office of Minority Business Enterprise), raised U.S. purchases from black businesses from $9 million to $153 million, increased small business loans to minorities 1,000 percent, increased U.S. deposits in minority-owned banks 4,000 percent;

•raised the share of Southern schools that were desegregated from 10 percent to 70 percent. Wrote the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights in 1975, “It has only been since 1968 that substantial reduction of racial segregation has taken place in the South.”

Just as there were non-bigots in the Democratic Party 50 years ago, not everyone in the GOP is a bigot.

But just as the Democratic Party had just enough bigotry infecting it to be a detriment to minorities 50 years ago, so it is with the GOP today.

I am sorry this actually had to be explained to you.

I notice you keep avoiding the Right's treatment of other minorities besides blacks. Very telling.

Just pay attention to what side of the political spectrum the next anti-gay or anti-Muslim or anti-Mexican topic you read on this forum is coming from, mm-kay?

I dont know if you know this but that isnt a rebuttal. Republicans in general do not like, support minorities. Basically you only having 3 or 4 blacks kinda highlights that fact even more

What do you even mean by help? Help them overcome the hole that the democrats have put them? I realize that the democrat party thinks that blacks need the democrat party to take care of them but man when are they going to wake up an look around and see what the help the democrat party has given them ain't exactly helping them. But it certainly is helping democrats get elected, which is after all the objective as outlined by LBJ.

I can't think of one thing democrats have ever done that have helped the black community. Even the NAACP was started by white Republicans. Blacks should be laughing at the democrat party and enjoying the freedom they have with the Republican party.

Indeed. The ranks of the Democratic Party are MUCH more colorful.

Who is more likely to say gays are abnormal freaks and perverts, a conservative or a liberal?

Who is more likely to attempt to draw a comparison between gays and pedophiles, a conservative or a liberal?


Who is more likely to smear all Muslims, a conservative or a liberal?

Who is more likely to smear Mexicans and immigrants, a conservative or a liberal?


you can work hard and find some dead guy from more than half a century ago to make your point about Democrats, or I can effortlessly provide examples from the past week.

I realize you treat blacks as invalids that require your support. I realize it makes you feel less a racist because you support the poor blacks that in no way can make it on their own. I realize that you feel feeding someone thus controlling them is much better then teaching them to fish. But please spare us the BS.
