Civil Rights Platforms and REALITY
You really need to read this about who is who in politics.
It can open your eyes to who the TRUE civil rights champions are:
John Quincy Adams was called the hell-hound of abolition. He wanted slavery abolished. Meanwhile those who would later become Democrats fought hard to keep it legal. MOST of our founding fathers, even those who held slaves were abolitionists eventually. As early as 1789, they were fighting to have it abolished.
In 1854 the Democratic controlled Congress fought and passed a law expanding slavery called the Kansas-Nebraska act. This lead to contention in our government and caused a split of the Democratic-Republican Party. One side- the Democrats fought hard to pass legislation to keep and expand slavery. Our Republicans fought harder to abolish it. These things lead Lincoln to take us to war, for the sake of abolishing the evil practice of slavery completely. The Democrats went on to fight AGAINST every civil rights legislation which we (the Republicans) fought hard to pass.
The 1864 Republican Platform gives us both reason and right as a party to drill for oil, since OPEC forces people into slavery. We should have NO MORE TO DO WITH THEM. It speaks of how the Republican government finds it detestable and shall not partake in anything advocating it. The Democrats platform just complains about the Republicans using the military to uphold fair elections, to keep pro-slavery (Democrats) people from acting out violently against those who oppose it (Republicans).
In 1868 the Democrats Platform actually accuses Republicans of fighting for Negro supremacy and they promised to fight against any further civil rights for blacks. The Republicans just declared sympathy for the opressed.
In 1872 the platforms- the Dems demanded amnesty to protect them from prosecution for the crimes against humanity perpetrated in the civil war. The Republicans platform was to emancipate 4 million slaves, give them citizenship and voting rights.
In 1872- 87% of the Democrats voted against an equal education Bill for black Americans.
In 1876 the Democrats' platform was calling the Republicans unfair for fighting for the rights of blacks and they claim that it is NOT a majority in America that wanted their freedom. The Republicans' platform promised to purge the US of slavery and to fight for civil rights for blacks.
In 1880 the Republicans were sending military people to the places people voted to assure the safety of blacks who were trying to vote. The Democrats called it corruption?? Again the Republican platform spoke out against slavery.
In 1884 the Democrats of the South found a new way to be unfair to the blacks by creating the "Black Code" and only allowing them to partake in servile labor, making them less than a white man. The Republicans fought against this and tried to abolish the Black Code.
1888 and 1892 - The Republicans stay on track and promise to fight FOR equal rights. In 1892 the Democrats made basic proclamations of change, which were later evidenced as untrue.
In 1896 the Republican Party platform took a stand against lynching, which was still going on, despite the Republicans efforts to stop unequal treatment. The Democrats came out with a not so new civil rights cause- freedom of religion (already covered in the Constitution). It was later taken further to mean freedom FROM religion and morphed into a lie about the meaning of the Constitution (the false claims of Separation of Church and State).
In 1900 The Republican Party platform pertained to the 15th Amendment- against discrimination. The Democrats said nothing about civil rights that year, same as 1888. However, the years they said something- it was against civil rights.
In 1904, The Democrats' platform claimed that all racial inequality was healed at that point. WHAT?? The Republicans disagreed and demanded fair representation, so they could continue to fight for those rights.
From 1908-1936 The Democrats' platform made NO mention of race or civil rights. The Republicans came out again to fight for equal rights for blacks in 1908, 1920, 1924, 1928, 1932 and 1936. They also continued to try to pass legislation to stop the lynching in 1920, 1924 and 1928. Democrats at that time were against stiff criminal penalties for lynching and there was equal protection for a dog. In 1936 the Republicans were trying to pass laws for fair employment and safety rights for black Americans.
In 1940, Roosevelt, a Democrat pandered to black Americans and appointed blacks to his cabinet to advise him on race issues. Although, he did little for civil rights and didn't even introduce ONE civil rights Bill during his presidency. This was the start of the BIG LIE, where the Democrats showed themselves to be pro-civil-rights and actually did nothing for minorities. In 1940, The Republican platform was to promise a square deal and to enact civil service reform, making the military unbiased towards blacks. The
1944 platforms were: The Democrats made a vague promise of civil rights for people of racial and religious minority. This would later have Democrats inferring to blacks that they are the same as people of quirky and sick religions, even Satanism. It was made to sound like they would lose their rights if they didn’t take a stand for these quirky civil rights causes being pandered by the liberals and it continues today with abortion and gay marriage. The Republicans were still fighting to get the Democrats to agree with them on legislation to penalize racists for lynching. Ironically, the Democrats at this time were coming out as THE party for civil rights, yet enacting no good legislation to protect blacks. The Republicans were still fighting AGAINST discrimination, segregation and unfair treatment of blacks, despite the liberals manipulating them into becoming Democrats every chance they got. Government had been making people pay a poll tax, so they could vote. With the state of the economy for blacks, thanks to the Democrats killing the legislation Republicans tried to pass, most blacks could not afford to vote. Republicans wanted to make voting EQUAL for ALL classes and possible for all blacks, so they tried to abolish the poll tax.
In 1948 the Democrats under Truman finally listened to the REPUBLICANS and enacted an anti-lynching law. The Republicans had tried and failed for decades, because of the Democrats in office. Truman also finally abolished the poll tax (for Federal elections) that Republicans were trying to abolish. Despite almost all of this new legislation being legislation the Republicans had been trying to pass for decades and being stonewalled by the Democrats, the Democrats still got credit for it. Again the Republicans platform was to protect civil rights and abolish segregation. Therefore, despite many Democrats voting against the new civil rights laws, these things were finally passed because of the Republicans voting for them.
In 1952 The Democrats platform was a very basic statement about upholding rights. The Republicans made a promise NOT to try to confuse or basically trick blacks into voting for them for the sake of political gain, because of what the Democrats had been doing. Republicans continued fighting for the true civil rights causes. Like it or not, the average black person back then was uneducated due to the Democrats and their bigoted legislation. The Democrats took advantage of this, as you can see with all past legislations. This is still going on today. You would think that as the blacks were tricked into voting FOR the party that sought to destroy them, Republicans would stop fighting to help them, BUT they never have. The Democrats continue to be a party full of corruption and manipulation and they have MOST minorities EVEN Christians convinced that Republicans are hate-mongers. NOTHING is further from the truth!
In 1956 and 1960 Republicans were able to fight and pass laws to desegregate public areas, like parks and restaurants in D.C. and planned to further it around the entire nation. They were successful in beginning the desegregation of public schools. The Republicans also fought for fair housing laws making it possible for blacks to purchase equal homes in areas where they were not allowed to live before desegregation. They both had a platform FOR civil rights at that time. However, the Eisenhower (Republican) administration, with Nixon as VP did more for civil rights than ANY other administration. At this time black Americans began to excel and open businesses, get better educations and jobs, homes, etc. They were pulling themselves out of a historically bad situation.
In 1964 America was still reeling from the assassination of JFK. JFK was less willing than Eisenhower to use executive orders to promote civil rights. He made many promises of civil rights that he was unable to see through. He even delayed a promise to sign an executive order to continue to integrate public housing for two years. The prior Republican administration got it started, but was unable to see it through as they were not voted in the next election. He also delayed a major civil rights bill until 1963, after a violent racially motivated incident. The bill was a result of the Eisenhower administrations 1957 findings, by his appointed Civil Rights Commission. Although Kennedy was a known philanderer, his promises of equality left the nation hoping that his unfulfilled legacy could continue. And death has always had a way of portraying people in a positive light. At this point in history, at least we can be glad that the last two Democratic administrations were willing to do a little for civil rights. Under the Johnson administration there would be two more -big civil rights bills passed. BOTH bills were passed thanks to the Republicans in Congress. There was not much support from the Democrats. By hard work and a century plus of fighting for the enfranchisement of blacks and minorities, Republicans could FINALLY say that their efforts weren’t in vane. The last century of disenfranchisement attempts by the Democrats had failed. Blacks finally had the same rights as whites. The only thing left was to help change the mindsets of the many separatists left in America.
As a result, the Democrats went on to falsely advertise themselves as the champions of civil rights!
They would soon take on causes that were evil and wrong, like abortion, affirmative action and gay marriage, falsely labeling them civil rights causes. They knew that Republicans were strict adherents to the Constitution and would not go for this, so they were able to call them bigots to confuse those who they always fought against.
Soon we found ourselves in a country that no longer gives the right to life to babies and now the Democrats would fight again to put a covert burden on blacks that was ended by the Republicans. The early proponents for abortion discretely let it be known that abortion MUST be utilized as a method to keep down the population of blacks. They hired black preachers to lie to young black women about whether it is morally right. They were willing to risk the healthy white babies they would exterminate with their covert genocide. So they put an abortion clinic on every corner in the black neighborhoods and fought against laws that made young black men responsible for their children. They allowed and encouraged portrayals of blacks as sex-starved animals to be commonplace in music, television and other public forums. The Democrats continue to fight for abortion and the Republicans knowing it for the evil it is, continue to fight against it.
The Democrats furthered the abortion legislations as Clinton passed a bill allowing Partial Birth Abortion, which allowed abortion up until the end of the 9th month of pregnancy. Bush has been fighting against it since he took office.
The tool Democrats have used through Affirmative Action has caused racial unrest and an ideology of inferiority amongst blacks. It has been a powerful psychological tool keeping many whites now feeling slighted as the blacks used to and keeping many blacks feeling like they can’t make it without handouts. It spreads a message of unfairness and inequality in a time when it is now proven that we can be equals intellectually. They have also left fewer blacks wanting to achieve equality in education, due to a fear of inferiority. If you tell a person they can’t do something without help long enough, they will believe you. This causes MOST of the racial unrest that remains in this country.
God Bless you and God Bless America!
Please pray for the people of this nation to wake up and see the skunk in the rose garden, before it sprays us all!
AND don't even bother to respond with rhetoric or you are stupid. How about you look up the party platforms and see for yourself!
