So let me ask you this Mr. "I just know".

Why were the civil rights bills of 1960, 1964, 1965, and 1968 necessary?  Which States were the motivation?   Which party had absolute control of those states, both in national office and state office.  Which party comprised the Sheriffs that were enforcing the Jim Crow Laws?

If it were not for the racist Democrat party, none of that legislation would have been necessary.

I doubt I will convince anyone who has commented on this thread,  you guys are true believers.  You have a religious devotion to the myths generated by your party, and no amount of documentation or argument will convince you.

The good news is that a few people, like myself, who were once Liberals, will wake up after reading some actual history.   If one honestly compares the Democrat party before the "big switch" and after, the result will be that very little if anything actually changed.  Same officials, same policies, same voting base.
