You found it necessary to make the distinction of Conservatives (Republicans) but jump to the conclusion the Democrats you listed were also Liberal. Nothing could be further from the truth. It's always Conservatives blocking the progress on civil liberties. In fact, it's always Conservatives eroding civil liberties. There is no Conservative track record on advancing civil liberties.And yet, the majority of black voters vote Democrat. Why is that?
And, I might point out, 70% of black children are born to single mothers. What 'black family structure'?
I've always wondered about the Democrat vote. Conservatives (Repubicans ) are usually the ones accused of holding blacks back. But who was it that stood in the doorways to education and a path to the future?
Little Rock, Arkansas:
!957, Little Rock Nine. Govenor Orval Ugene Faubus (DEMOCRAT) Tried to hinder black students from going to white school even using the Arkansas National Gaurd. President Eisenhower nationalized the gaurd (taking control away from Faubus) and had them step down so black students could enter white school.
New Orleans:
1960, Ruby Bridges (there were others at different school but we most remember her. Note Norman Rockwells painting "The Trouble We All Live With") at the ripe old age of six needed the protection of Federal Marshalls to keep her safe from Govenor Jimmy Davis (DEMOCRAT) so little black Ruby Nell could enter white school.
Tuscaloosa Alabama:
1963, Vivian Malone Jones and James Hood needed Federal Marshalls to remove George Wallace (Not the black comedian one) the(DEMOCRAT) govenor from the doorway of a white school so the black students could enter.
