I predict democrats, being the devils that they are, will head off attempts by the Right at unmasking them as the founders of the KKK. They will totally own up to that piece of truth, apologize for it in a highly visible manner, then fortify justification to steal away millions of tax dollars in reparations and cement black loyalty. Then they will put this KKK association to bed once and for all.
They have already done that by convincing blacks that the racists blacks in the South became racist Republicans. This in spite of Robert KKK Byrd staying with the Rats until he died.
