The motto for the convention was: "This is a White Man's Country, Let White Men Rule"

Jesus. Coupled with founding the Ku Klux Klan, negotiating the Three-Fifths Compromise, being pro-segregation, and being pro-slavery; I'm so happy I decided to stop affiliating myself with the Democratic Party. And of course, they've never apologized for this!

Very racist history. If we are taking down Confederate monuments, the Democratic Party as an institution should be dissolved too.

The Democrats are the party of racial (now ethnic, sexual and economic) division. They always have been.

It’s almost as if 95% of southern white men were Democrats before they became republicans

Predates the Democratic Party by about 40 years.

Parmen is indeed an idiot, but you are off by a full century here.

Most blacks voted Democrat all the way back since 1932. Doesn’t seem like that much has changed.

Excellent insight. The Democratic Party's sins have caught up with them.

Remember Obama's campaign saying the R's drove the car in the ditch?

Look who Obama stole it from...

Perhaps you are referring to the 1968 convention - another fine display of Democrat unity.

Lol at Parmen doing some trolling.

It's not politically correct to say this, but any group of individuals (race, gender, wealth, beliefs, etc.) naturally want their kind to stay on top.

Naive libbies don't realize if they moved to Africa or any other country that is dominated by a certain race, that race would work to keep them up and the libbie down.

It is human nature to be protective of your group and wary of others.
