What's so sad is that MLK Jr. was a republican, he had all the right values, to judge someone on the content of their character not on the color of their skin. And I don't want to hear "the parties switched ideologies" crap, that never happened, what happened was the democratic party changed their stance on racial issues, and painted the GOP as the racist party, and it has worked. Unfortunately a lot of [older] southern republicans are still racist, and that is something that needs to be fixed. I am disappointed with our fellow southern republicans today.
Lol. The Republican party is a southern party. By your own definition the Republican party is racist.
