A Racial Reckoning for the Democrats
American Thinker.com ^ | August 12, 2021 | Deborah Bucknam

Vermont Democrat Party chair Bruce Olsson published a commentary recently proclaiming yet again that Republicans are "racist." This is particularly rich since the Democrat party is the oldest and most enduring racist political party in history, and its racism continues to this day. Here are the facts:

The Democrat Party was founded in 1828. Its first national party platform, ratified during the 1840 Presidential election, stated: “ that all efforts by abolitionists or others, made to induce congress to interfere with questions of slavery… are calculated to lead to the most alarming and dangerous consequences, and that all such efforts have an inevitable tendency to diminish the happiness of the people… and ought not to be countenanced by any friend to our political institutions.”

The message was clear: the Democrat Party did not consider Black Americans to be “people” deserving of “happiness.”

That same language was in every national Democrat party platform for the next 16 years.

Democrat party leaders acted on their racist principles, committing high treason against their country and their fellow Americans between 1861-1865 in order to preserve the system of Black human bondage.

If the Dems be not racists, then why is it that the Congressional Black Caucus will not allow black Republican Senator Tim Scott to join ?

No greater collective of draconian, arcane, supercilious idiotic rascists exist today than in the Dem Party, because Critial race Theory is "final solution"racism. That worked great for Adolf Eichmann.

Obama used the word stupidly often. I find that a Freudian slip. Democrats think Americans are stupid because they like it that way and it will continue unless people like Larry Elder, Bob Woodson and Clarence Thomas explain things.low to no information is the key for Democrats. Erasing history and truth is their plan.

The demonRats don't even see their problem. They don't realize that their need to "help" the minorities is the tyranny of low expectations. The minorities need their help because they are incapable of doing things themselves. This will continue until either:
1. The demonRats realize their fundamental error
2. The minorities realize how the demonRats view them

Until one or both of those occur, the tyranny of the Left will continue.
