There’s a popular myth the Democrats absolutely love to tell over and over. The only problem is that factual information (and good ol’ common sense) refute that particular lie.

Specifically, that white Southerners conservatives (especially white Southern conservative men), are all irredeemable, hooded, gun totin’ white supremacists.

Historically, the Democrat Party was the only game in town in the South, at least until the late 1960s.

Back then in more than a few Southern households, being a Democrat was more important to the white Southern sense of self-identity than was the English and Scots-Irish blood that flowed through their veins.

Then, as now, Democrat leadership consisted of solid Socialists. Just do a little research into the politics of Governors George Wallace (Ga), Lester Maddox (Ga) and also of Governors turned Senators Olin Johnston (SC) and Huey Long (La).

White Southern Democrats in positions of power back then would have fit-in rather nicely with the likes of Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Big believers in the welfare state and “Spreading the wealth” (AKA: “Taking other people’s money“).

Again, then like now, the Democrats were and still remain strict segregationists. However, whites are no longer on the top of the heap, but at the bottom. Nonetheless, Democrats remain hard-core segregationists… no matter how you slice it.

Interestingly enough, white Southerners slowly but surely started shifting their political alliances to the Republicans back in the ’60s and ’70s.

What the Democrats of present-day won’t mention is that the GOP of then (and remains) is the party of integration as well as being unashamedly pro-capitalist.

Something else to consider; if the current Democrat narrative is true, then shouldn’t all of the white Southern Democrat (Dixiecrat) leadership back then have converted en mass to the GOP? One would think.

Amazingly enough, in regard to the vote in the US Senate for the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 21 of the 27 “Nay” votes came from white Southern Democrats.

I have to emphasize this… of all those Southern Democrats who voted AGAINST the Civil Rights Act, how many actually became Republicans?

Keep in mind, to listen to the Nancy Pelosis and Chuck Schumers of the world, one would think that most, if not all of the Dixiecrats would have followed their racist roots and became Republicans.

Not so much.

The ONLY Dixiecrat who left the segregationists and Socialists of the Democrat Party was the Governor, then the US Senator from the Palmetto State, Strom Thurmond.

But back to what a phony-baloney Joe Biden is.

C-SPAN matter-of-factly noted of the US Senate Judiciary Committee, chaired by Sen. Joe Biden, how on Aug. 1, 1989, Biden and his Democrat buddies ensured that the GHW Bush nomination of William C. Lucas (a West Indian-born black man) for Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights was shot down in flames (Emphasis mine. Start video at 55:23 mark);

The committee meets to vote on the nomination of William Lucas to be Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights in the Department of Justice. The result is a seven to seven deadlock, which leaves Lucas one vote short of a favorable nomination.

On an identical vote, the committee also rejects a Republican proposal to send the nomination to the Senate floor without a recommendation. Therefore the nomination is rejected.

I’d also like to cite some other factual info that Heritage.org published back in 2021;

• Biden lectured about the fears that blacks may have of the vaccine, attempting to point to historically shameful episodes when they were subjected to inhumane medical experiments.
  “They are used to being experimented on—the Tuskegee Airmen and others,” Biden said. In this, he confused legendary World War II fighter pilots with a long, notorious governmental study of syphilis among black men—the Tuskegee Experiment.  July 7, 2021
• On Charlamagne Tha God’s popular morning radio show in May 2020, Biden infamously asserted to the largely black audience that if they were unsure of whether to vote for him or Trump, then “you ain’t black!”
• Then in August 2020, Biden told a gathering of black and Hispanic journalists that “unlike the African American community, with notable exceptions, the Latino community is an incredibly diverse community with incredibly different attitudes about different things.”
  In the same interview, responding to a question on whether he had taken a cognitive test, Biden angrily fired back with the suggestion that the black reporter was a drug addict. “That’s like saying you . . . before you got in this program, you’re take [sic] a test whether you’re taking cocaine or not,” Biden said. “What do you think? Huh? Are you a junkie?”
• In 2007, he referred to Barack Obama as “the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean.”
• Way back in 1977, he said that forced busing to desegregate schools would cause his children to “grow up in a racial jungle.”

Then we come to the Reuters news service doing their damndest to provide cover for Biden by “Fact checking” that Slow Joe didn’t eulogize the ex-Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, Sen. Robert Byrd (D-WV).

Whoever started posting a photo of Biden holding hands with Byrd was off.

Byrd wasn’t the Grand Wizard. He was just one of the many who held the Klan title of Exalted Cyclops.

That’s right, Reuters DID verify that Biden eulogized a man who once held the title of Exalted Cyclops of the West Virginia Ku Klux Klan.

As reported by the left-leaning PolitiFact.com (emphasis mine);

In West Virginia in the 1940s — late 1941 or early 1942, according to Byrd’s memoir — he organized and led a 150-member chapter, or “Klavern,” of the Klan as the “Exalted Cyclops.” In Klan hierarchy, according to Slate, each Klavern is led by an Exalted Cyclops typically elected by his fellow Klansmen. The Exalted Cyclops reports to a “Grand Giant” (provincial leader), “Grand Dragon” (state director) and “Grand Wizard” (national chair).

In his book, Byrd says he worked as a recruiter, or “Kleagle,” for the Klan until early 1943 and then left the state for a welding job in Baltimore. He returned to West Virginia after World War II ended and sent a letter in 1945 to Theodore Bilbo, a Democratic senator and segregationist from Mississippi, complaining about efforts to integrate the military. 

“Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels,” he wrote.

Speaking of Democrat-turned-Republican, we have quite the tweet sent out by Vernon Jones, formerly of the Georgia House of Representatives;

In 1993, racist Joe Biden delivered a hateful speech calling Black men “predators on our streets.”

The Democrats tried to erase this clip after he became their Presidential nominee in 2020.
