I don't. I call you a liar. MLK was a Republican!Why do you are you calling Martin Luther King Jr. a liar?Why do you keep denying the racist heritage of the Democratic Party?The Democratic Party founded the KKK for the express purpose to taking back the state houses of the south after the Civil War through terror and intimidation.
"
Except of course as you know it- that is a lie.
The Democratic Party never founded the KKK.
6 white men.
6 white Christian men.
6 white Christian Southern men.
6 white Christian Southern Confederate Veteran men- found the KKK
No evidence that they were Democrats at all.
Of course you don't say Christians founded the KKK- because that doesn't work with your racist agenda. Nor do you say Southerners founded the KKK, because that doesn't work with your racist agenda.
Meanwhile what you are desperately trying to avoid is what African Americans think of the Republican Party- which is that you are now the party of the KKK
Just as Martin Luther King Jr. said you are
The Republican Party geared its appeal and program to racism, reaction, and extremism. All people of goodwill viewed with alarm and concern the frenzied wedding at the Cow Palace of the KKK with the radical right

Why are you calling Martin Luther King Jr. a liar- and a Republican?
Here is what Martin Luther King Jr. said about you and your party

MLK on the Republican Nomination of Barry Goldwater | The Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change
And yeah- MLK Jr. correctly identified you.
- "It is disingenuous to imply that my father was a Republican. He never endorsed any presidential candidate, and there is certainly no evidence that he ever even voted for a Republican. It is even more outrageous to suggest that he would support the Republican Party of today, which has spent so much time and effort trying to suppress African American votes in Florida and many other states." ~ Martin Luther King III
- "I regret having said to a group of peers that my Uncle M. L. was a Republican. I said that without having all the facts. My Grandfather, Dr. Martin Luther King, Sr. was a registered Republican. Uncle M. L. was an independent, who in his own words tended to vote Democrat. I assumed that since Granddaddy was a Republican, Uncle M. L. was too." ~ Alveda King
