...her last name was Rice. She gave an accurate factual history of the Republican Party and its relationship to Americans of African origin.

And you say that she's from Texas. I read some history of the Republican party of Texas some time back at a website for black Republicans, and per their claims, the Republican party of Texas was established by blacks. You could have knocked me over with a feather.

First of all, I've never run into a black Republican organization before, but there's one here in North Texas that's alive and well. I mean to hook up with those folks when I can.

I'll make sure to spread the word here when I do launch my blog. Thanks again.

In our area the Klan targeted two groups: blacks AND Republicans. The counties that are heavily Democrat population were also infested with Klan members (Active until the 50-60s. Still active in counties north of here).

The historic homes that were connected to the Underground Railroad are in the counties that historically vote with the GOP.

Keep us posted.
