and today's northeastern dominated Democratic Party is the same old southern, "state-rights", socially conservative Dixiecrat Party of the past....
Please explain why the South started becoming increasingly Republican starting especially after 1964? Which were the two candidates? Which one was the liberal and which one was the conservative? Which one of for "state-rights" and which one supported civil rights?
Maybe once you learn you will understand why black people, the ACLU, NAACP, CORE, AFL-CLO, ADA, SNCC, SCLC, and the rest of the groups that fought for civil rights in 60s are solidly with Democrats today.
