More republicans voted for the Civil Rights Act of 1964 than did democrats.
Bill Clinton was the five term governor of Arkansas and never once attempted to remove the "star of the confederacy" from the Arkansas Sate flag, Arkansas official documents or emblems. Neither did Hillary.
While Bill and Hillary Clinton were running Arkansas they did not want to enforce the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and had to be sued by the NAACP to enforce it.
Sen Ernest Hollings mad the State of South Carolina fly the confederate flag over the state house while he as SC governor.
Sen Byrd was a KKK member and a Recruiter.
Bills Clintons mentor ; William Fulbright was a staunch segregationist.
Bill Clinton's political mentors - former Arkansas Sen. J. William Fulbright and former Arkansas Gov. Orville Faubus were both rabid segregationists.
Clinton highly praises Fulbright and bestowed upon him the Presidential Medal of Freedom Award.
Donna Brazile, Al Gore's presidential campaign manager, called Republicans "white boys" who seek to "exclude, denigrate and leave behind."

I don't know B.C. personally.
But I know someone who (now deceased) knew him very well.
In fact, he bragged for years of being the one to introduce B.C. to politics while he was in his early teens.
This individual was highly active in Arkansas labor politics and I can assure you was from the "old boy" school when it came to race.
B.C. is full of B.S.
