Not really a stellar showing either way, but the Dems win out in numbers....also in ideology, since the GOP has fought tooth and nail to rescind crucial Civil Rights Acts and systematically dismantle all thngs connected with FDR's New Deal.

That is incorrect. No surprise there though. Here: https://history.house.gov/Exhibition...s-by-Congress/

Pay attention! The OP is about a SENATOR! The Big Dumb Dog's post makes an incorrect statement regarding black representation in the SENATE, to which I corrected. Your link includes the HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES....which from 1963 shows the same ideological shift in parties that I mentioned earlier.

Got that, bunky? I hope so, because you right wing wonks/trolls have a bad habit of displaying insipid stubbornness when proven wrong on a point, and thus waste a lot of time and space.

If a country club had 50 or so members and only one of them was black, one could easily say he's an Uncle Tom

If the Congressional Black Caucus decided to let one white join...what would that make the white?

And several of those Dem senators had to be appointed, ... not elected.

FDR? ... like his regressive SS tax?

Due to different life expectancies, a Black man gets only 5 years of SS ... compared to white women who take the lion's share at 15 years of SS.

You have absolutely ZERO evidence that a "Southern Strategy" was EVER implemented. It is total bullshit.

1. Appointed or elected, the OLD GOP led the charge before the ideological shift in Senators and Congressmen. The Southern Strategy initiated in 1964, genius. So your maps coincides with what happened afterwards. https://www.history.com/news/how-the...mocratic-south

2. Only a willfully ignorant right wing flunky would call the creation of Social Security "regressive". It was CREATED, stupid. Prior to that THERE WAS NO FEDERAL MANDATE FOR CITIZEN'S REGARDING FINANCIAL SECURITY. You were wholly at the mercy of the banks (i.e., Stock market crash, recessions, Wall St. scandals). And FYI, had various administrations on both sides of the political fence did not use the SS fund as a an auxilliary bank for other projects, it would be sound today. https://www.fool.com/retirement/2020...as-stolen.aspx

And just where the hell did you get your 'facts' regarding SS comparisons between black & white folk? Put up or shut up, because the readers are damned tired of you digging up Limbaugh to pull this crap out of his decaying ass.

Bottom line , it doesn't matter what right wing crackas like or don't like, feel or don't feel about people of color , their views are meaningless in the scheme of things, they are not America future but it's past

STFU ya fuckin' Moolie!

It amazes me how these clowns keep selling versions of reaganomics to their willfully ignorant constituents.... who then blame Democrats and liberals for the economic screwing they supported.

Like Powell, Steele and Rice, Scott will soon get his wake up call when the GOP powers that be no longer have any use for him, and will be regulated to the side lines of fund raising in some state.

And how long did Democrat KKK Senator Byrd serve in Congress.

About as long as the super racist and segregationist Strom Thurmond. But, a quiz for you. Which racist fucked a black woman?

That’s right. The Republican.

[Geeko Sportivo]

and when was the last black GOP senator before him?

Edward Brooke, left office in 1979......and the one before that guy?

Blanche Bruce, left office in 1881

Tim Scott is the black Trump, telling his poor black constituency and white trash voters stories and promising them wealth, anything to keep those GOP fat cat donations pouring in

THE ONLY BLACK GOP SENATOR???

OUT OF 535 CONGRESS SEATS that represent all 50 states- Only one Black Republican house member- and only one Republican Senator.

And they claim, "We aren't Racists"!

[reagansghost]
