Vladimir Putin on Obama:

Dealing with Obama is like playing chess with a pigeon - he knocks over the pieces, craps all over the board, and then struts around like he won the game.”

Oh and Berry Goldwater (REPUBLICAN) was opposed to the civil rights act.

Happy Thanksgiving Deo Vindice

JFK was no Conservative, but he was smart enough to praise John C. Calhoun as one of the five historic Senators in his Profiles In Courage. But his policies were the ones that LBJ later forced through--the exact opposite of all that Calhoun stood for.

He also allowed his brother the use of the equivalent of a division & a half--23,600 Federal troops to occupy Oxford, Mississippi in 1962--that was 3 troops for every man, women & child in the combined College & town population--an outrage against the basic spirit of Federalism, in support of the over-reaching Warren Court. It was also the exact opposite of what Bobby had promised the South in the 1960 campaign.

The 1964 Goldwater vs. Johnson election was an anomaly, The MSM, then as now, was liberal biased, albeit more subtle and civil than in our time. They effectively painted Goldwater as an extremist, with the same colors as they did with the John Birch Society, the deplorables of that era. Despite Goldwater’s Jewish ancestry, the alphabet networks and the prestige newspapers smeared him as having affinity with neo-Nazis. The same tactics that were used to imply that Trump was insane were applied against the Arizona senator.


The results were evident in the facts that many counties in the North and West that had voted for the GOP Presidential candidate since Lincoln spurned Goldwater. Outside of New England and its “colonies” in upstate New York, the Upper Midwest, and the Pacific Northwest, these counties reverted back to the Republican Party from 1968 to 2016. (The progeny of the Yankees became more liberal in the 1980s and thereafter, Contrast rural upstate New York counties in 2016 with similar counties in Pennsylvania; Trump won the former by narrow margins, but the latter by 10-25 point margins. Scots-Irish and German Protestant voters did not shift leftward as did the English Protestant Puritan descendants.)


From its beginnings, the Republican Party has had a moderate and a conservative wing. The most effective Republicans, such as Lincoln, McKinley, Eisenhower, and Reagan, managed to unite the competing factions. The conservative faction, represented by Harding, Coolidge, Taft, and Goldwater, was skeptical about government meddling. Deep Southern support for Goldwater was predicated upon his opposition to LBJ’s civil rights legislation. Unlike the Dixiecrats, however, his opposition was not based on support for segregation, but on his belief in states’ rights and dislike for un-Constitutional legislation. Also, Goldwater was very pro-military and anti-Communist, themes that played well in the Deep South.

"That is the reason they were killed by the power structure"

They were killed by Lee H. Oswald and Sirhan Sirhan. Neither was part of any power structure.

>> Good to know. Thank you. Sad situation if the 1st Catholic President had appointed someone for abortion. <<

Goldberg was for abortion. He was one of the major forces behind Griswold v. Connecticut in 1965, which struck down contraceptive laws and was later used as "precedent" in Roe v. Wade. He just wasn't on the court when Roe v. Wade was decided. If he had been, he would have certainly joined the liberal bloc in voting to strike down laws restricting abortion.

And Kennedy was only "Catholic" on paper. JFK openly opposed the Catholic church's conservative social teachings.
