we have been waiting for blacks to vote right for 50 years no[w]

50 years ago, the black people that were allowed to vote were predominantly Republican. It wasn't until Nixon's "Southern Strategy" that the black vote began shifting to the dems.

wrong..blacks voted Democrat after New Deal...LBJ’s entitlements cemented it....Nixon’s Southern Strategy ..lol

Southern whites flocked to the GOP min droves because black entitlements affected them far more than it did Yankees

and the Dems lost any social conservatism they once had and the GOP picked up some anew from the Dixiecrat newcomers
