What year exactly, did this switch happen?

Let me clarify once again before I answer. It's a switch in ideologies not politicians.

Started around '72 and they went full on conservative when Reagan was elected.

That's not what I said now was it?  Why do you think he didn't run in the Presidential Election as a Democrat?

He's not going to answer. He knows if he does, it's going to go against his point and you know he's NEVER wrong.

But the Dems still had full blown klan members in the Democrat party after 72. The “racists” voted against them. How is that if the ideologies switched?

As recently as 2010, the Senate’s president pro tempore was former Ku Klux Klan Exalted Cyclops Robert Byrd (D., W.Va.)

“The less racist the South gets, the more Republican it becomes.”

No ideological switch, just people being less racist. Hard to imagine if all you ever see or think about is race. But this is all it is.

Exactly my opinion this makes one feel better about supporting a party that basically been using them to their advantage.

Just like i said the last time his name was mentioned on this this thread, I never said the democratic party wasn't racist. Also, MULTIPLE times, i said THE RACIST WHITE VOTERS left the party and both dems and rep had to adjust. Why do I have to keep saying the same thing over again. Also, the ideology is NOT racism, it's conservative vs liberal. Let me help you.

How do conservatives feel about deregulation?

How do conservatives feel about social programs? 

How do conservatives feel about state rights?

Maybe I missed you criticizing democratic politicians, views, policies, etc...

Have you ever seen me praise a democratic policy? I've said many many times they're all on the same team and they keep us distracted so we can't see the real issue. Economic equality.

If there are racist in one party, whites leave that party, but they are still racist? How do you infer that the whites that left the dem party (which not a lot did as shown in previous post) are racist still? Because they are white?

You are truly brainwashed wtih the whole hippy thing. You are an example of how Nixon tricked conservative Americans into thinking they were the enemy. Lol hook line and sinker.

“You want to know what this [war on drugs] was really all about? The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I’m saying?

We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. 

Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”

~ John Ehrlichman, Assistant to the President for Domestic Affairs under President Richard Nixon

 

What John Ehrlichman is saying is far different than what I know about most of the black community.  Sure they have a few drug dealers and a few whino's just as every race does.  That's not the people I know that are black.  I'm sure a very limited few sold heroin in the 60's and 70's, but I've never seen heroin be a drug of choice for blacks that do use drugs.

  I'm not brainwashed at all about the hippy community, because while we didn't have very many in Longview there were some, and they were stoners.  Hippies were more out west with their communes and Haight Asbury and Greenwich Village, NY.  My ex-wife who was from New Mexico said there were a bunch in Tulum, NM, but I don't know about that.  

How can they take down the black community when the majority of blacks don't use drugs ?  The Hippy Community would have been easier, but they usually lived in communes that were off the grid and they lived off the land.  Weed was easy to grow so they grew it for their intoxicant.

Reagan has always marked the complete of the turn. Also, it was the black vote that got Clinton in.

Where do you come up with that nonsense ?  It was Bush Sr. saying no new taxes and then approved more taxes and Ross Perot throwing his hat into the ring.  The reason Perot threw his hat into the ring, was because Clinton promised no new taxes, and conservatives voted for him.  19.7 million votes and change.  In 1988  Dukakis had 89% of the black vote to Bush's 11%.  Clinton lost 8% compared to Dukakis with 81% and Bush lost 1% and received 10%.  That's not true at all.

The party platform has not changed much since the days of Lincoln.  Show how they have changed, because I've already done the research.  Republicans believe in conservation as well, but we aren't going full retard go green the way the left has.  Just today I read that if you have an EV and the battery is scratched the insurance company will junk the entire vehicle, and why insurance rates are shooting through the roof on them.  Scratch the EV battery and you may have to junk your whole car | The Wentworth Report . 

The only thing that has really changed is our commitment to NATO.  After 50 years of carrying the load it was time that the European Nations stepped up and paid their fair share.  It shouldn't be a burden on the U.S. to protect them when they should have the resources if not for their socialistic ways.  With China it has, but we saw that they held the upper hand in trade dealings, and Trump wanted to put America first just as the Republican Party did in 1972 with Japan.  As for spending Trump did want to bring down the deficit, but his hands were tied due to the Wuhan Flu epidemic and the misguided states that shut down their economies and schools with lockdowns that DID NOT WORK.  President Trumps hands were tied with what states and local jurisdictions could do, but he did not want lockdowns to happen.  Republican Party Platform of 1972 | The American Presidency Project (ucsb.edu)  Show me what differences that you see between 1972 and 2020.  While some are of a historical text Vietnam/Afghanistan Trump had a plan unlike Biden to remove our troops from Afghanistan and it wouldn't be the snafu that it was under Biden.

Both parties are racist, some leave one party for another. They are racist also. Make it make sense. 

Can you give another explanation for the Democrats never winning the white southern vote after 1968?

If I hate black people and my party signs a bill to end Jim Crow. I would be upset at that point ANYTHING was better than the dems to them. In 72 Nixon got the ones who voted for Wallace in 68.

Those whites in 68 that left were the racist ones.i said NOTHING about now. That's when Republicans became super conservative. This convo was about con vs lib. YOU asked me when the switch happened. Racism played a part in 1968. Whether or not you agree, it's not hard to understand what I'm saying.

I always respect your post but fact is fact whether you see it like that or not. They attempted the two groups with lies. It came from the horses mouth. Like I said it worked. I liked what you said about the black community but you see the same posts I see on this site.

Many don't know my history.  I realize it may have been attempted, but the communities and people I've known weren't involved in heroin.  Some in weed, but overall the people I have known in Longview, Jacksonville, TX, Tyler, Tulsa,OK, Dallas, Irving, Shreveport, and Birmingham, AL, and now Houston weren't into drugs.  I've been in what some would call the bad side of town.  A majority of blacks were hard working people trying to make a living for their families.  I don't stereotype people, unless they walk the walk and talk the talk.  Some do, but most are just average everyday people like you and me.  I want to see drugs off the streets, because I see what it does to people that get into it's grasp, and that includes white people as well.  It's one of the reasons I'm against legalizing weed, because I don't see any good in it.
