It is well known about Wilson’s allegiance to the Confederates and it is also well known that the birth of the Progressive movement contained elements that originated frmom both the republican and democrat party.
It was though the democrats (Confederates) who brought about the full blown birth of the Progressive moevement with the Wilson Presidency.
Here is a quick blurb by Jonah Glodberg who has studied much of this:

There is a lot of history of the alliances between the Progressive movement and the Confederate movement. The Poeple’s party (a Confederate democrat movement) endorsed Woodrow Wilson and of course it is well known that Wilson endorsed another Confederate movement (the KKK).
In many ways it was the Confederate democrats who were very simliat to Qaddafi being that they wanted power at all costs. Secession was an attempt to throw away the Constitution and to rule supreme over their slaves. The Confederates even formed terrorist groups such as the KKK such as Qaddafi uses terrorism for the same means to hold power.
Both the Confederates and the Progressive democrats that followed shortly after supported this type of disregard for the rule of law and the use of terrorism.
The Lost Causers could deny all of this if they want but the truth will catch up to them and they will be exposed. They are the birth of all of the anti-Constitution politics that we see in America today. The Confederate democrats were the birth of today’s Progressive democrat party.
At a certain point it becomes pointless to present facts to the invincibly ignorant. So I’ll spare myself the effort and let you go blissfully onward.
