Inconvenient truth.
Republicans tried to block the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Republicans nominated for President one of the non-southerners to vote against the 1964 Civil Rights Act- and nominated two more Presidents who opposed the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
Luckily- Democrats- with Republican assistance passed the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
