Republicans — Not Democrats — Gave Women Right to Vote

[danielpalos]

Sure didn't take long for the Party Switch Myth to show up.

Not sure why. The republican right wing is all about bigotry not any form of better solutions at lower cost.

 

[Sunsettommy]

More to the big picture, "Democrats" and "Republicans" of 1900 or 1860 are in no way what "Democrats" and "Republicans" are now other than the name, and to pretend political parties are some ideologically static stone that never changes is mendacious bullshit.

The Democrats of old, filled with racism and hate - the one that started up the KKK,

.

Once AGAIN --- no political party started the KKK. That group was started by six twentysomething ex-Confederate soldiers who had no political affiliations, in a place where political parties did not exist anyway. Want their names?

Alpha order: (Maj) James Crowe; Calvin Jones; (Capt) John B. Kennedy; (Capt) John Lester; (Maj) Frank O. McCord; Richard R. Reed. 205 West Madison Street in Pulaski Tennessee, Christmas Eve 1865. About eight o'clock.

NONE had any known political affiliations, nor were any political parties available in a land that was having no elections and was not part of the United States.

Prove me wrong or admit you're pushing mythology.

True the party itself didn't, but the PEOPLE who did were all from the democratically dominated states and fought as a Confederates. In the 1870's it was the Republicans who got a few blacks into political office, NONE of them were supported by Democrats, while the same KKK and other peoples opposed it. Then when "Reconstruction" ended, it was the Democrats through KKK and their new legislative majorities in the southern states, pushed the blacks out of office.

Your "democrats didn't do it" claims isn't supported by history either since it was the DEMOCRATS who overwhelmingly opposed the three Amendments passed between 1866-1870 by the Republicans, granting Citizenship, Voting and ending Slavery.

The KKK no longer existed when Reconstruction ended. It was gone by 1872. Democrats did oppose those Amendments, and that of course is the Democrats of the 1870s. It seems like you're still trying to push Composition Fallacy here.

See my radio station analogy in post 10. Then tune in that station babbling about whether Brett Favre is really retired, and ask them to play The Coasters. Same thing.

Ha ha ha, you are very wrong since the KKK was still around in the 1950's, 1960's when they bombed black home and Churches in the Democrat dominated south.

From HISTORY

"Founded in 1866, the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) extended into almost every southern state by 1870 and became a vehicle for white southern resistance to the Republican Party’s Reconstruction-era policies aimed at establishing political and economic equality for blacks. Its members waged an underground campaign of intimidation and violence directed at white and black Republican leaders. Though Congress passed legislation designed to curb Klan terrorism, the organization saw its primary goal–the reestablishment of white supremacy–fulfilled through Democratic victories in state legislatures across the South in the 1870s. After a period of decline, white Protestant nativist groups revived the Klan in the early 20th century, burning crosses and staging rallies, parades and marches denouncing immigrants, Catholics, Jews, blacks and organized labor. The civil rights movement of the 1960s also saw a surge of Ku Klux Klan activity, including bombings of black schools and churches and violence against black and white activists in the South."

and,

Klux Klan Violence in the South
From 1867 onward, African-American participation in public life in the South became one of the most radical aspects of Reconstruction, as blacks won election to southern state governments and even to the U.S. Congress. For its part, the Ku Klux Klan dedicated itself to an underground campaign of violence against Republican leaders and voters (both black and white) in an effort to reverse the policies of Radical Reconstruction and restore white supremacy in the South. They were joined in this struggle by similar organizations such as the Knights of the White Camelia (launched in Louisiana in 1867) and the White Brotherhood. At least 10 percent of the black legislators elected during the 1867-1868 constitutional conventions became victims of violence during Reconstruction, including seven who were killed. White Republicans (derided as “carpetbaggers” and “scalawags”) and black institutions such as schools and churches—symbols of black autonomy—were also targets for Klan attacks."

bolding mine

Somehow the KKK would only target Republicans, gee I wonder why......

It was the Republicans who tried to stop the KKK through legislation, but the blood soaked organization never disbanded, they hung on for decades in part because the anti black party regained dominance of the southern legislatures who did most of the work to suppress blacks. ​

"Over the weekend, women celebrated #InternationalWomensDay on social media and at events across the globe

The United Nations’ slogan for the day was, “Think Equal, Build Smart, Innovate for Change.”

For Women’s History Month, Rolling Stone magazine featured Speaker Nancy Pelosi along with Reps. Ilhan Omar and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez paying homage to the record number of women serving in the 116th Congress and of course, bashing Republican President Donald Trump.

Democrat females even wore “suffragette white” to last month’s State of the Union address."



......In all of this celebrating and promoting Democrats, the media failed to point out / make clear that Republicans — not Democrats — were responsible for granting women the right to vote in the first place.

It is a trailblazing history of which Republicans should be proud:


"The Women’s Rights Convention held in 1848 was the catalyst for the women’s rights movement. Two years later, another convention followed where the matter was discussed.

By 1870, the Massachusetts Republican State Convention had already seated two “suffragettes” who had fought for the women’s right to vote — Lucy Stone and Mary A. Livermore.

Just two years later, the National Republican Convention of 1872 approved a resolution calling for a wider role for women in the political process, and demanding that “additional rights” for women “should be treated with respectful consideration.”

In 1892, two women delegates from Wyoming were seated for the first time at a national political convention — but it was the Republican National Convention (not the Democrats’.) This same convention was the first time a woman was ever allowed to speak at a national political convention — again, it was a Republican convention.

During her speech, the chairwoman of the Women’s Republican Association of the United States vouched for Republicans’ commitment to granting women the right to vote and said they would see the fight through to the end.

Finally, at the request of Republican Susan B. Anthony, Sen. A.A. Sargent — a Republican from California — introduced the 19th Amendment to grant women the right to vote.

The amendment was voted down by a Democrat-controlled Senate."

When Republicans regained control of Congress in 1919, they passed the Equal Suffrage Amendment as one of their first orders of business.

It was a decades-long fight that Republicans saw through to the end."

I already read The Prince of Darkness and know about the realignment of parties and how the right wing went Republican and the left wing went Democrat, after the civil war. The right wing has nothing but special pleading and disingenuity.

And despite these claims the fact remains that Republicans pushed for and successfully got passed into law Civil Rights and the right for women to vote. Meanwhile today the Democratic party has embraced the platforms of Anti-Semitism, Pro-Illegal Immigration / Pro-Illegals voting, killing newborn babies, etc....

Yup, Democrats have 'evolved' from their KKK - and militant Black Panther (and now Antifa) - Days.

it was the left that were the republicans, then,

The biggest mistake in political history of the country... along with other extensions of voting rights. We were never supposed to be a democracy, and I would attribute our fall in large part to it. There isn't a single good thing that has come out of the extended voting rights. Instead we have gotten bigger and bigger government obsessed with replacing its own population. Today you can vote in American elections without ever even having stepped onto the soil.

Republicans have always had the feature of wanting to appear as not racist as possible, no matter how hard it fucks them and their kind in the ass. Conservatives who fail to conserve anything are the definition of failure.

God did you forget that since the late 1860's, blacks had the right to vote by Amendment, but it was the DEMOCRATS right up the 1960's who tried to prevent black voting, which means for nearly 80 years, their actions were unconstitutional.

It has been by law, legal for blacks to vote since 1869.

When will you assfucks EVER quit lying about this.

It was both Republicans & Democrats in the South that always voted against the civil rights. As proven by the vote on the Civil Rights Act of 21964.

Oh dear, it the Democrats who dominated the south by voting from the 1860's to the 1980's when Republicans finally gained the majority vote. In all that time Republicans were in the minority, who couldn't pass anything.

No it was Democrats who fought the 1957 CRA with Filibuster and low yes votes:

The Democratic Senate Majority Leader, Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas, realized that the bill and its journey through Congress could tear apart his party, as southern Democrats opposed civil rights, and its northern members were more favorable. Southern Democratic senators occupied chairs of numerous important committees because of their long seniority. Johnson sent the bill to the Senate Judiciary Committee, led by Democratic Senator James Eastland of Mississippi, who drastically altered the bill. Democratic Senator Richard Russell, Jr., of Georgia had denounced the bill as an example of the federal government seeking to impose its laws on states. Johnson sought recognition from civil rights advocates for passing the bill as well as recognition from the anti-civil rights Democrats for weakening the bill so much as to make it toothless.[3]

The bill passed 285-126 in the House of Representatives with a majority of both parties' support (Republicans 167–19, Democrats 118–107)[4] It then passed 72-18 in the Senate, again with a majority of both parties (Republicans 43–0, Democrats 29–18).[5] President Eisenhower signed the bill on September 9, 1957. "

Overwhelming yes voting from the Republicans, while barely get over 50% yes votes from the Democrats.

​

1957 Filibuster from Wikipedia:

"Then-Democratic Senator Strom Thurmond of South Carolina, an ardent segregationist, sustained the longest one-person filibuster in history in an attempt to keep the bill from becoming law.[6] His one-man filibuster lasted 24 hours and 18 minutes; he began with readings of every US state's election laws in alphabetical order. He later read from the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, and George Washington's Farewell Address.

To prevent a quorum call that could have relieved the filibuster by allowing the Senate to adjourn, cots were brought in from a nearby hotel for the legislators to sleep on while Thurmond discussed increasingly irrelevant and obscure topics."

1964 Filibuster:
​

When the bill came before the full Senate for debate on March 30, 1964, the "Southern Bloc" of 18 southern Democratic Senators and one Republican Senator led by Richard Russell (D-GA) launched a filibuster to prevent its passage.[16] Said Russell: "We will resist to the bitter end any measure or any movement which would have a tendency to bring about social equality and intermingling and amalgamation of the races in our (Southern) states."[17]


Lyndon B. Johnson signs the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Among the guests behind him is Martin Luther King, Jr.
Strong opposition to the bill also came from Senator Strom Thurmond (D-SC): "This so-called Civil Rights Proposals, which the President has sent to Capitol Hill for enactment into law, are unconstitutional, unnecessary, unwise and extend beyond the realm of reason. This is the worst civil-rights package ever presented to the Congress and is reminiscent of the Reconstruction proposals and actions of the radical Republican Congress."[18]

Now let's focus in on the numbers for 1957, which you didn't link (wonder why) but I looked up myself. The vote breakdown is here. We've done the 1964 bill over and over, let's look at '57.

It says that out of 18 "no" votes in the Senate, seventeen of them came from the South/ex-Confederacy. Which is exactly what I just told you without even looking it up.

Dumbass.

"Over the weekend, women celebrated #InternationalWomensDay on social media and at events across the globe

The United Nations’ slogan for the day was, “Think Equal, Build Smart, Innovate for Change.”

For Women’s History Month, Rolling Stone magazine featured Speaker Nancy Pelosi along with Reps. Ilhan Omar and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez paying homage to the record number of women serving in the 116th Congress and of course, bashing Republican President Donald Trump.

Democrat females even wore “suffragette white” to last month’s State of the Union address."



......In all of this celebrating and promoting Democrats, the media failed to point out / make clear that Republicans — not Democrats — were responsible for granting women the right to vote in the first place.

It is a trailblazing history of which Republicans should be proud:


"The Women’s Rights Convention held in 1848 was the catalyst for the women’s rights movement. Two years later, another convention followed where the matter was discussed.

By 1870, the Massachusetts Republican State Convention had already seated two “suffragettes” who had fought for the women’s right to vote — Lucy Stone and Mary A. Livermore.

Just two years later, the National Republican Convention of 1872 approved a resolution calling for a wider role for women in the political process, and demanding that “additional rights” for women “should be treated with respectful consideration.”

In 1892, two women delegates from Wyoming were seated for the first time at a national political convention — but it was the Republican National Convention (not the Democrats’.) This same convention was the first time a woman was ever allowed to speak at a national political convention — again, it was a Republican convention.

During her speech, the chairwoman of the Women’s Republican Association of the United States vouched for Republicans’ commitment to granting women the right to vote and said they would see the fight through to the end.

Finally, at the request of Republican Susan B. Anthony, Sen. A.A. Sargent — a Republican from California — introduced the 19th Amendment to grant women the right to vote.

The amendment was voted down by a Democrat-controlled Senate."

When Republicans regained control of Congress in 1919, they passed the Equal Suffrage Amendment as one of their first orders of business.

It was a decades-long fight that Republicans saw through to the end."



KERNS: Media Spend Women’s History Month Forgetting Republicans — Not Democrats — Gave Women Right to Vote

Why is it that people who constantly refer to "the founders" don't mention that "the founders" denied female persons the right to vote in the first place? What was going on with "the founders"??? It certainly wasn't "democracy". "The founders" disenfranchished one half of the country. No "democracy" there.

When did men of either party stand up and yell that their mothers, wives, and sisters were being unfairly denied the rights and benefits of democracy? Do tell.

Sadly that was the way of the world then, neither women nor slaves considered human.

It's also interesting that the Fifteenth Amendment the OP tries to drool over in real big fonts continued the exclusion:

“The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.”​

--- deliberately not mentioning gender. IOW assuring the right to vote to black men but not any women.
