2012 GOP: Revealing the Truth about the Democratic Party Part 2: The Parties Switched. Most Americans believe that the political parties switched shortly after the Civil Rights Act of 1964-The Landmark Anti-Discrimination Law. As the story goes, the Democrats became Republicans in protest of their party apparently supporting Civil Rights for �Blacks�. In truth, the vote count for the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was 80% Republican support to 63% Democratic Party support. So either the Democrats who did not support this Law left the Democratic Party or their constituents stopped voting for Democrats and elected Republicans. Politics is about Power and Power only comes from the votes cast by your power base. Let�s see how it turned out.. 2012 GOP – Democratic Republican: video and 2012 Republican presidential election video, showcasing 2012 Republican Presidential nominees, election news reports, Republicans primaries, fundraising events, in addition to candidates for 2012 election gossip.





Lie. Most Southern Dems remained within the fold of the Democrat party. The South would still remain Democrat for the next 30 years. When the south finally became Republican, it was due to CONSERVATIVE fiscal and social issues like taxes, government regulations, gun control, abortion, etc), not race issues.
The Democrat Party actively seeks power through the destruction of of the traditional family and the Middle Class , economic depression and subsequent dependancy on Government.
Socialism!
Irrational Democrat LIES are just Another Reason to Forgo them!
Saying the 2 Partys ‘Switched’ is like saying these All Switched:
Up & Down, Front & Back, Top & Bottom!!!
The fact that elected officials stayed in the Democratic Party after the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts misses the point. Millions of CITIZEN Democrats left the Party, just as LBJ said they would. Over the coming decades they moved to support George Wallace and eventually into the Republican Party where they are today. The video is evidence that Republicans do not support diversity TODAY because instead of supporting diversity they peddle lies.
In the early 1960s I was taught in school that “Reconstruction” after the Civil War resulted in Negroes being elected to the Congress who embarrassed themselves by sitting with their feet on the furniture while they ate watermelon and spit the seeds on the Chamber floor. I learned about a year ago that some of those men were intellectual giants. Their writings and speeches are worth looking up and reading. They were Republicans, and were effective in passing civil rights laws at that time.
wrong
That just goes to show that even racist believed the lie…
I live in Texas, have family members who were all democrats until the civil rights movement. They believed in states rights, Jim Crow Laws, and separate but equal. They have never forgiven the Democratic party for supporting Civil Rights. They are all currently Republicans…
for more proof google the Governors of each southern state, I did the searches and found out that they were almost all democrats until well after the Civil Rights Act, when the Democrats couldn’t keep Black people down any longer they decided to try and buy them, sadly it did work in so many cases
I hope everyone wakes up to the truth about the democrat party. I am 19 and have always held the democrats to a lower standard than common crminals and I am proud of it. God bless America. If anyone wants to tell me I am wrong I would prefer you do a little research preferably unbiased research.
Hello everyone,
I want you all to know about this great site that helps
so many sisters & brothers whom have been incarcerated in America.
etcny org
I am telling all for they have helped many to begin with from Rikers Island
in East Elmhurst, New York. I also want all to know that Former
Vice President of the United States of America Al Gore
& Sir Richard Branson want all to know how great this
organization is for so many.
Since they are my partners, I can speak for them freely.
I disagree, if providing historical information is propaganda then count me as a propaganda. The conventional wisdom is the Us parties swtiched after the 60′s and that is a point of view but there is plenty of informaiton to contradict and to add greater context to such a simplified explanation. More information is better than less, and the individual coming to his or her own understanding is better than accepting what the official story is. knowledge is power

Racism runs rampant but neither party is “more” racist than the other. If you look at the history of the political parties, there’s not much in a name. FDR was a Democrat, the more conservative party of his day, but was extremely liberal. Nixon embraced environmental issues, LBJ took a conflict in Vietnam and made it into a war, and Jimmy Carter was a Democrat who appealed to Christians and conservative southerners. This video, like much recent news coverage, is propaganda intended to divide us.
those crazy Phelps people from the westboro baptist church are hateful vile people yet they prefer to vote democrat, yet that association doesn’t make the democrat party racist or homophobic – it just means some crazies prefer the dem label to the rep one. Considering how many racist presidents the US has had from both of those parties as well as eariler ones, I wouldn’t personally label any as more racist than another, sexism and homophobia are a different question but racism I see it in all
no the relationshuip between the two is tenuous at best … if the corrolation involved people voting for explicit racists I would agree but clearly part of the point in this video is many of these explicit racists never changed parties so if the racist senate democrats never switched but the south voted for republicans then that would be a better thing … the fact some white raccists prefer to vote republican does not a raicst party make
I can clarify – before 1950, the south was filled w/ Democrats (Democrats dominated the South until after the civil rights act). Post civil rights act, every Republican nominee (for President) won the South — except Carter. Before civil rights = Democrats won the South. After civil rights: Republicans won the south. So it’s pretty clear the Republicans and Democrats switched sides, right? What else explains how the Solid South suddenly went Republican and the north suddenly went for Democrats?
so your point about switching parties is that Strom switched parties ? your comment lacks clarity, could you elaborate ?
Excuse me? What YOU are stating is an opinion, the truth and FACTS are that the South was run by the Democrat Party almost exclusively from before the civil war all the way through to about the end of the 80′s.
From here I could start expressing my opinions and conjectures. But I’ll let the facts speak for themselves.
Really, misleading propaganda? Hmmm, than why to this day, with the proven failure of The Great Society and it’s successful destruction of the black family, with TRILLIONS & TRILLIONS of dollars squandered, people living in poverty has increased, do the REgressives continue to push for more of this modern day slavery?
This video is moronic propaganda. Beginning in the 1940s the southern states (the “Solid South”) saw a split among Democrats, some remaining Democrats, others, such as Strom Thurmond, labeled themselves Dixiecrats. From Reconstruction up until civil rights, Democrats owned the south. After LBJ and the civil rights act, only one candidate won the south (Carter). When we talk about “switching parties,” this is what we’re talking about. Your video is misleading propaganda.
If you are evil enough to start the KKK, you are evil enough to dump your crimes on somebody else’s doorstep. Democrats are the masters of projection.
Just as a side note, Strom Thurmond integrated his staff after switching parties, and had at least one bi-racial daughter. I wouldn’t call him a racists as much as he was a political opportunist.
