Ouch, they pretend that it was the Democrat party that freed the slaves. When it concerns the king of kings racist, the Rev. Al Sharpton, one must consider the source. The man proclaims to be a man of God, but it's been shown to only be true when it's in Al's best interest.
In the 60's, Conservatives fled the Democratic Party and swelled the ranks of the Republican Party. They forced out the blacks who joined the Democratic Party. This is why history is important. Funny, conservatives want to take credit for things Republicans did BEFORE they took over the Party. Kind of like taking credit for getting Bin Laden, the guy the let go.
If that was true ( forced out the blacks) then please explain why it was not until 1968 that the GOP won the white house and 1980's until they became the majority party of one, and then both, houses of congress? Please explain why the civil rights movement targeted the south, and what party controlled the south? You are aware of the voters rights act and what party attempted to disenfranchise a race from the polls? You use the word conservative as if it was never a central theme in defining the GOP, based on what? Are you certain of this fact? Maybe your a little confused as to the moral component and swing vote of the bible belt, which is located in the south? But then again maybe you were taught this and have yet to do a little research on your own.
