    "Liberals" like Governor Ralph Northam.

    "Is Governor Northam a racist?

    1. Northam has admitted that he appeared in blackface while at UVA.
    2. Northam has apologized for being photographed either in blackface or in a hooded KKK gown.
    3. Northam has withdrawn the apology stating that it was not him in the yearbook photo.
    4. Northam refused to shake the hand of the black American who was running against him.
    5. Northam's nickname while at VMI was "Coonman"
    6. Northam supports the mass extermination of millions of black American babies even after they are born alive.

    Yes Virginia, your governor is a racist.

    "Remember back when we wondered just what it would take for the news media to call Donald Trump’s statements “lies”? Seems like decades ago, doesn’t it?

    We’ve moved past that—way, way past that—but more recently there’s been a similar question: what does it take to get them to call something racist, as opposed to, say, insensitive or racially charged? Ladies and gentlemen, we have our answer: appearing in blackface in your medical school yearbook. These screen caps are all from Friday night."

    Why he’d prefer someone who admits they don’t care vs someone who tries to help.

    Thomas acknowledges that he was accepted into law school partly because of race-conscious admissions programs but has blamed those policies for devaluing the achievements of black graduates. He contends that his law degree is worth only "15 cents" because of it.

    Show me there is something in it worth reading.
    You just proved that Thomas was right.

    Who doesn't care and who do you think is trying to help?

    The south went red when LBJ signed the civil rights act. It was a paradigm shift. It happened.

    If that's so, he should resign because his law degree isn't worth spit and he is unfit for his position.

    Once again proving that Trump's assessment of the true impact of affirmative action is spot on.

    The newly freed Blacks were Republicans and if anyone really understands ( and does not reject truth) the history of the South during Reconstruction one will know that the overriding primary targets of the Klan during Reconstruction were Blacks. There were some minor cases of "scalawags" and carpetbaggers being harassed by the Klan but that was a minor side show in comparison to attacks on Blacks. Klan attacks on Blacks was to intimidate and suppress the Blacks from gaining any political or economic viability. Freed Blacks in public office was a short lived phenonimon. The White Republicans who were aligned with Blacks did the gain any power until after LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act..

    I'm not sure what point you think you are proving.

    That Jimmy was , how should I say this nicely..

    He was a Democrat and won the south, so the theory that the flip happened 10 years prior was/is a myth.

    He was a "good ole boy" from Georgia. Southern states were still predominately red, and continue to be so.

    And Ford had a flailing economy and Nixon's stink on him. Predictable win by Carter.

    @william kurps

    Please read this. It explains what you are failing to grasp(or more likely refuse to grasp).

    Southern states went from blue to red as soon as LBJ signed the civil rights act.

    Please take the time to read this because I have neither the time or the inclination to educate you on the subject. It's a short read.

    There are a lot of foreigners in here. When they screw up a sentence it is obvious.
