Everyone agrees that the abolition of slavery, universal suffrage, and the election of politicians of all backgrounds are good. And that's progress, because it wasn't always so.

It's interesting that position of the parties with respect to big government and to a certain extent, racism switched under FDR and the New Deal.

But it was democrats, specifically JFK, that brought the civil rights act. After it was fillibustered in the Senate, and JFK was assassinated, it was pushed through by Lyndon B. Johnson. (Also a democrat).

I see you’ve met the Saidit village idiot. It’s probably AI ultra liberal gibberish.

Aww cute.

You want to engage but you don't feel up to entering the discussion. So you put in ad-homs, in the hope of interating.

I see you GuyWhite. Feel better.
