    I guess once they stopped nominating Klansmen for governor, in the freaking '90s, blacks would come over eventually. Just remember you doofuses could have done this sixty years ago.

    That's often the case, but not always. Examples of exceptions would be:

    1. Moderates that already had tendencies towards each party
    2. Parties shifting in certain ways that make people no longer welcome in that party
    3. Heartfelt change on core issues

    In this place, he makes clear its purely about political posturing. Will be interesting to see if he wins re-election.

    white supremacist and Klan member David Duke also joined the Louisiana GOP after his stint with the Democratic Party.

    Fun Fact!

    they both left the Democratic Party, for one.

    was David Duke not a white supremacist or Klan member?

    This entire thread is race baiting.

    When discussing the Republican party I like how he does not discuss anything since the 1960's..... reminds me of the bit from Family Guy "Hey... this German history book doesn't discuss anything from the 1920's through the 1940's."........ when a German snaps "We all were on vacation".
