” he Dems of the 1800s are basically the Repubs today? “
WTF?
Today’s Dems view the Negro as inferior- as their Dem predecessors did.
All that’s changed is what to do about it.
the Republicans have consistantly supported equal treatment for the Negro since the Party’s founding.

The above statement is completely untrue. During “Reconstruction” the radical Republicans politically controlled the Negros just as the Dems do today. The power behind the Negro legislators did not really care about their advancement but used them as a block of power. The political control of usually illiterate or semi-literate Negros prompted former CSA General Jubal Early to state, “What a gentle institution slavery must have been to have so well prepared the Negro for the ballot box”.
The 1964 landslide victory of Republican Barry Goldwater in the deep South points up how the descendants of the Confederates were solidly Republican while the rest of the country supported LBJ’s “Great Society” socialist programs. Goldwater won Alabama by huge margins that swept in a whole slate of Republican congressmen.

Any idea which (famous) Republican made all of these remarks?
And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.
I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races.
You and we are different races. We have between us a broader difference than exists between almost any other two races. Whether it is right or wrong I need not discuss, but this physical difference is a great disadvantage to us both, as I think your race suffers very greatly, many of them, by living among us, while ours suffers from your presence."
