Republicans, do you believe your party isn't racist?

[DrScholl]

The bigger problem with the party is that there are plenty of people in it who aren't racist, but are perfectly fine ignoring racism if it benefits them electorally and that speaks to a serious lack of integrity.

After the Southern Strategy, it's pretty much a joke for any Republican to deny there is a racist element in the party.

So the "Southern Strategy" (largely a myth anyway) is "racist" when the Republicans do it, but not Democrats?  (Carter, Clinton, Kennedy, Stevenson, Roosevelt etc.)

Myth? You can't just dismiss what is the truth, the Southern Strategy was very real. Of all the Democrats you mentioned, none of them was elected on racial reasons and Stevenson wasn't elected at all. Read a history book, why do you think the south flipped from majority Democratic to majority Republican?

The Vietnam War.

That is just flat out untrue and I think you know that. History speaks for itself, no amount of revising is going to change it.
