Democrats voted for former KKK member Thurmond. Liberals said this was okay because he was a former member.

I wonder why Zappacrite won't give this former racist the same treatment.

In 1968 Thurmond was at the Republican national convention because he was facing huge conflict with Dems who were pushing for Civil rights. He helped the party that thought like him and agreed with his beliefs. Thurmond was in conflict withe the Dems for a decade. The party of Nixon was a perfect fit.

20,000 Republicans just voted for an actual Nazi


Illinois Republicans nominated Arthur Jones for a U.S. House seat.


The former head of the American Nazi Party ran for the Republican nomination of Congress in Illinois’ 3rd Congressional District. No Republican stepped up to oppose him.

On Tuesday, despite his vocal Holocaust denial, his anti-Semitic rhetoric, and his white supremacist views, 20,339 Illinois Republicans, according to preliminary totals, cast their ballots for Arthur Jones.

Jones’ Nazi-sympathies were not a secret going into election day. His campaign website features a slideshow of pictures of him speaking at white nationalist events. He is a perennial candidate who has previously run for U.S. House, Chicago alderman, and mayor of Chicago, and even mayor of Milwaukee. Chicago media extensively covered the race. The Anti-Defamation League warned voters of his record. The chairman of Illinois Republican Party even disavowed him, saying “The Illinois Republican Party and our country have no place for Nazis like Arthur Jones. We strongly oppose his racist views and his candidacy for any public office, including the 3rd Congressional District.”

Still, a stunning portion of the GOP primary electorate opted to cast their ballot for Jones rather than nobody. This includes, according to unofficial totals as of Wednesday morning, 13,158 voters in suburban Cook County (more than 70 percent of 18,595 GOP primary ballots cast), 4,093 voters in Will County, 3,023 voters in the City of Chicago, and 65 voters in DuPage County.

While the National Republican Congressional Committee, the campaign arm of the House GOP, dismissed Jones last month as “a fringe candidate who has been doing this for over a decade with with no real connection to the GOP,” his campaign platform mirrors President Trump’s agenda. Jones’ campaign website promises to “put America first” with border protections, the elimination of “Sanctuary Cities”, no “amnesty for illegal aliens,” gun rights, and a repeal of the Affordable Care Act.

Jones will face incumbent Democratic Congressman Daniel Lipinski, a social conservative, who narrowly won renomination on Tuesday.

You might actually be right for once. Nixon did an awesome job for civil rights: https://www.nixonfoundation.org/2017/08/nixons-record-civil-rights-2/

Richard Nixon is credited for having a strong record on foreign policy, but his record on domestic policy — especially on Civil Rights at home is often overlooked. During his years as vice president under Dwight Eisenhower, he sought to ensure minorities — especially African Americans — weren’t discriminated against in federal contracts. He also worked with Congress to spearhead the Civil Rights Act of 1957, sweeping legislation and a precursor to the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965.


and then the revolt happened

there is a reason black people used to be reliable republicans


and there is a reason they are now reliable Democratic party members

The parties did not flip. That is the biggest fallacy that modern day Democrats try to push off on people to try and explain away their obvious history of racism and deceit. The saddest thing about that is way to many people fell for it.

You gotta be kidding me!

The south was totally Democratic before 1954...when LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act.

It went almost completely Republican because they despised the idea of EVERYONE having Civil Rights.

It still is the home of the racist Republicans.

I do not know what percentage of the GOP electorate in this district willfully voted for a Nazi, but I can tell you that is seems like about one quarter to one-third of the rightwing continent on jpp.com are resentful racists, belligerent bigots, sexists, or mediocre misogynists.

And the vast majority of the remainder of conservatives on this forum willfully accept, acquiesce, or otherwise provide safe harbor to the racists in their midst and in their party. Though they will find all kinds of time to complain about Desh.

I come here to discuss politics and ideas, not be a board policeman for calling out trolls. And if you aren't willing to call out Desh and TTQ64 then you can't really expect others to do what you won't do yourself.

No doubt, out and PROUD. What's the name of the small town around the Chicago area KNOWN for it's Nazi party parade? They held at a least a few times about 20 years ago. Caused quite a stir. I think the right to march actually went to the courts?

(One of the problems with a search is you gotta have at least some semblance of a name to put in 'the google' to get things started).

Fill in, if you can remember!

I don't accept your premise.

There is no moral equivalency - none, nada, zilch - between Desh and TT, and the truly vile, degenerate, subhuman racists who are counted among your party and make common cause with the rightwing on this forum.

For the record, I do not count you as one of the unrepentant and unreedeemable racist enablers, because I have seen you get in the face of some racist righwing swine.
