She was elected due to her physical attractiveness. No more, no less.

She’s dumb as a box of hammers but so are the 55% that vote for her every election.

Jim Crow

AOC is definitely not a "moron"; her assessment is in fact accurate in describing the history of the Senate in the last 100 years.

Remember Strom Thurmond? Or James Eastland, Richard Russell, Harry Byrd, J Wm. Fulbright, John Stennis, John Sparkman, Allen Ellender? No, I didn't think so. But all of them were Jim Crow Dixiecrat senators who exalted segregation and discrimination, and held up passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and 1965 voting rights legislation which ended the unconstitutional poll tax and grandfather clauses enforced in the South at the time.

It's noteworthy that Strom Thurmond, who had earned 39 EVs and carried 4 states back in 1948, became a Republican soon after the passage of the civil rights statutes. The Dixiecrat party, built on Jim Crow, became the core of the modern Republican party in the South-- and today Republicans make up the overwhelming majority of the Senate bloc in the South (Hooray to Georgia for being a firewall).

You don’t think your party will show up to vote for a democratic SOCIALIST?

Maybe you democrats aren’t nearly as stupid as you seem.

More proof that this poster isn't a human, but some retarded form of a bot placed in our discussion board to cause disruption.
I mean, seriously.... no actual person could consistently post such retarded and ridiculous statements.
I understand if folks miss something here and there, or don't read as closely as they should., but this poster(along with others)consistently post such clueless statements that it must be either on purpose or a retarded bot.
IMHO

The Senate was created in the Constitution when it was ratified in 1788, and the first session was held in 1789. The Jim Crow era spanned from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century, beginning nearly 100 years after the Senate opened its doors.


You can't underestimate the amount of foresight it took to for the founding fathers to base a country on something that would not exist for another century.

She knows more about Old Crow than Jim Crow...

I couldn't find the video where AOC broke down and cried, but here's one question she was asked when she was in Munich. She really struggled with this.

There's no "acid" involved there. The statement as written is actually true, in spite of conservative Southern Republicans' attempt to deny. Many (but not all) conservative white Southern Democrats who were segregationists ("Dixiecrats") went Republican after the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, led by Strom Thurmond -- that's a fact. Of course there were stragglers like Louisiana's John Rarick and Georgia's Lester Mattox who remained Democrats, but they were increasingly isolated within that party.

Sooo, they opposed them, but joined them after they lost the vote?? GTFOH…

Dem fan fiction.

Dems are still Dems, still the Party of slavery.

I don’t blame you. I’d be embarrassed to support the Left also.
