    Well, it is after all the democrat party standard line. First of all the argument fails the logic test.

    If you are to believe today's democrat party, the racists in the democrat party in the 1960s were so mad about Civil Rights passing that they decided to switch to the party that was instrumental in freeing the slaves and fought for Civil Rights. That is their reasoning.

    But failing that, we can look at election results and what we see is that it took over 30 years for the South to turn from red to blue and for a while, even though republicans were winning elections the democrat party out numbered them in voter registration


    Here is a great piece by a brilliant statistician and expert in polling and election results that explains it all.

    To claim that the realignment was solely based on race is comical beyond belief, but the left is used to lying to itself

    This is another great read. I don't expect our friends on the left to read it because it has a lot of complex concepts and they use a lot of big words, but it is an accurate portrayal of the history and not the spoon fed lies of the left

    Thanks for posting this.

    The basic “Southern Strategy” myth, popularized by Kevin Phillips in the early 1970s, goes like this: under LBJ’s leadership, DEMOCRATS nobly and self-sacrificingly supported civil rights, giving an opening to opportunistic Republicans to crack the DEMOCRAT Solid South. Supposedly, following the support given by voters in some Deep South states to Goldwater in 1964, Nixon (a supporter of civil rights) developed a “Southern Strategy” to use "coded appeals" to southern whites, enabling him to win the 1968 election; and everything the GOP has accomplished since 1968 is "tainted" by a continuous reliance on that same alleged strategy to keep white southerners in the fold.

    Like most myths, the Southern Strategy myth has some kernels of truth to it.

    It’s true that LBJ changed his tune on civil rights in the Oval Office, and did so knowing that this would have costs to the party.

    It’s true that Nixon, like Republicans as far back as TR, had the dream of adding Southern support to his coalition, and dedicated a campaign strategy to doing so.

    It’s true that the South has, broadly speaking, been far more Republican since the late 60s than it was before.

    The reality is quite different from the myth.

    The truth, as a cursory examination of history convincingly demonstrates, is the opposite. The growth of GOP support among Southerners was steady and mostly gradual from 1928 to 2010, and was a natural outgrowth of the fact that Southerners were ideologically much more compatible with the Republican agenda than with the DEMOCRAT agenda.

    I don’t expect any democrats to change their tune on this topic despite being presented with facts do you?

    It would be out of character for them to consider the facts and admit their error, in my opinion.
