Could you explain the reasoning that you used to come to that conclusion?Those that support the party of slavery are stupid, precisely because they cannot admit that they were wrong.Nope...the white racists are in the democrat party too......racists need control of the government to enact their laws, that is why all the racists have flocked to the democrat party, the party that wants government to have unlimited power......
The 'party of slavery' is now the party of African Americans.
While the party of the Lincoln is now the party opposed to Civil Rights.
Sure.
90-95% of African American voters vote Democrat.
The Republican Party nominated for President men who opposed the 1964 Civil Rights Act:
Goldwater
Reagan
Bush
Let's get this straight so for over 100 years republicans have been freeing blacks and in only a few years they switched back to the party that kept them slaves?
Illogical
Why?
Correct --- that conclusion would be illogical. The fault lies in the bogus premise that sets it up. That being, Slavery wasn't a product or policy of a political party. It's thousands of years old, world wide and the transAtlantic version was brought here by the 16th century, long before either any country or political party existed. Who then kept it as an institution were Southern --- and Northern --- colonists, then Americans once the country was established. They were Federalists, they were Democratic-Republicans, they were Whigs, they were Democrats, they were Know Nothings and they were like our first President --- no party at all. Matter of fact our 18th President, and second Republican one, had also been a slaveholder.
The dissolution of Slavery followed regional economics; the North, where it wasn't vital to the economy, found it easier to jettison while the South's agrarian economy was dependent on it. By the time that came to a head in the Civil War the Democratic Party was one of the only ones left standing due to the collapse of the Whigs and Know Nothings, the most recent rivals, and the new Republican Party had deliberately not established itself in the South. while the older DP was well established everywhere. The last gasp of the Whigs, the Constitutional Union Party, won a few states in the 1860 Presidential election and didn't last much longer, leaving the Democrats standing alone in that region, until after the War when the Republican Party finally came in. So what you're pointing at is simply the only party still surviving after the War.
Again four of our first five Presidents were slaveholders from the South, and none of them were Democrats (which didn't exist yet). And again, the Democratic Presidential candidate in 1860 got completely shut out in the South with zero electoral votes, so even then it was 'surviving' only tenuously. But Slavery, and specifically African-transported slavery, had been taking place in North America since the 1530s.
