I can not believe what a racist Woodrow Wilson(D) was. Everything I've read about him is disgraceful. I understand it was 1917, but come on! Compare him to Teddy Roosevelt. Take him off the 100,000 dollar bill!
kind of ironic isn't it then that most of the african americans vote democrat?
And Woodrow was a northern, Ivy Leaguer Dem.
Major James R. Crowe CSA or Jim Crow as he is now known was one of the Pulaski Six, the actual founders of the Klan.
Oon April 20, 1871 a Republican Congress enacts the Ku Klux Klan Act, outlawing Democratic Party-affiliated terrorist groups which oppressed African-Americans.
After violence against Republicans in South Carolina, President Ulysses Grant deploys U.S. troops to combat Democrat terrorists who formed the Ku Klux Klan.
Nathan Beford Forrest was at one time the Klans leader until President Grant threaten to have him imprisoned or worse, only then did Forrest disbanded the Klan.
Both Martin Luther King and Ralph Abernathy voted for Republican Dwight Eisenhower for President in 1956. Later after meeting with Dr. King, Eisenhower created The United States Commission on Civil Rights.
Woodrow Wilson, a democrat, was a racist and supportive of the Klan.
A shot across the bow. The message is, "Hey scumbag Democrats - - you want to run those 'black churches will burn' ads? Go ahead, make our day."
It's the truth.

There were NO Republicans involved in the founding of the Klan. In fact, one of its reasons for existence was to MURDER Republicans trying to help Freedmen from being RE-enslaved or murdered.
It is absolutely 100% correct that the Klan was the Terror arm of the Southern Democrat Party as it killed its way back to power in the South.

It is false that the riots in NY were by Republicans. In truth the rioters were almost all poor Irish many fresh off the boats who were being integrated into Tammany Hall's DEMOCRAT political machine. The rioters attacked Republicans and Blacks and considered them the protectors of Blacks and the reason the War was being fought.
NYC was RAT run during the War and consistently opposed it and Lincoln.
One set of hands may have a smudge or speck of dirt while the other was dripping with the blood of the tortured and enslaved. There is NO moral equivalency and it is hard to believe anyone who has looked into this would make such a mistake.
Please read the contemporaneous reports you can find in THE GREAT RIOTS OF NEW YORK 1712-1873, by Joel Tyler Headley and THE GANGS OF NEW YORK, by Herbert Asbury.

That's really only been since JFK and those who voted Dem, back then, for the first time, were bought off with papa Joe Kennedy's "walking around money".

If the claims in the ad are true, it is perfectly appropriate to use it. Public discourse DOES need to be aware of the facts or it is useless.
While most people associate Wilson with the North, from his tenure at Princeton, he was actually a Southerner, born in Staunton, Virginia...

I am surprised that the blacks didn't know this already.
Here's the problem with that;
"Steele disavowed the ad Thursday as "insulting to Marylanders.""
No, it isn't.
During the election debacle of 2000, a newspuppet interviewed a black lady outside the poll and she said [with a voice trembling in reverence] that she voted for Gore "because Abraham Lincoln was Democrat.".
Seriously.
The level of tragically successful brainwashing of blacks by Dems knows no bounds, here,
This is most likely true. The problem is the left has hidden this stuff for years and lied about it. What else is new?
