You keep posting how the south would have been the model for conservatism had they won but there is absolutely no historical evidence that that would be so. I don't care why they voted for globalist pro-international-banksters like Wilson, or socialists like FDR, but they did, and those two were the biggest enemies of freedom and American sovereignty that held the White House historically.
The south...pro-slavery, pro Wilson, pro-FDR...not a good record of freedom whatsoever.
Ironically before the 1920's blacks voted for the Party of Lincoln and not the Democrats.
Is that a bad thing?
When folks talk about regional voting trends I can’t help but think “rust never sleeps”. Washington state was reasonably republican until about 30 years ago when the metropolitan areas went lib in a big way. The ratios are still close - to the point where last year the pubbies took back the Legislature.
And if you look at states like Virginia you know (should know) that (one) shouldn’t take anything for granted. I’m glad that southern states vote conservative and hope that they always do.
Oh, and the proposition that without the south the north would be “completely communist”? Pure delusion that ASSumes a whole universe of probabilities.
