Did you never learn (that's rhetorical -- I know you're incapable) that Johnson rightly predicted that the Democratic party lost the South by enacting the Voting Rights Act in 1965? He knew -- everyone knew -- that the many racist country bumpkin honkey cracker cunts like you would hold equality against them and instead find a home in the Republican party where you all would sip moonshine on your porches while screaming into empty air about niggers, faggots, spics, and towel heads for the rest of your miserable existences. I'm not even surprised that you and the rest of the JPP cultists don't have any clue how you became the way you are. To be a modern American conservative requires ignorance and stupidity.
Oh. You want to find a middle school history teacher. I have neither the time nor the patience to teach your unteachable ass an absurdly simple and uncontroversial lesson about American politics. In all my life and all over the globe, I have never once met a non-American who is more ignorant about American history than the most ignorant Americans. You're standing in a forest and don't know what a tree is.
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

"Strom Thurmond declared that "all the laws of Washington and all the bayonets of the Army cannot force the Negro into our homes, our schools, our churches and our places of recreation." By 1964, with civil rights marching onward, it was clear that his fellow Democrats disagreed. Thurmond jumped ship, joining the Republican Party that year."
The college I went to is very liberal, but my education was not confined to the years I spent there. I'm a lifelong learner -- both formally and independently -- and find some humor in the fact that you American hicks get so emotional and defensive about objective historical facts that you deny they even exist. It's a psychological marvel, but that's not my expertise.
I have watermelon in the frig for tomorrow.

"Founded in 1865, the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) extended into almost every southern state by 1870----Its members waged an underground campaign of intimidation and violence directed at white and Black Republican leaders. "
"The civil rights movement of the 1960s also saw a surge of Ku Klux Klan activity, including bombings of Black schools and churches and violence against Black and white activists in the South."
