Same old shit from the usual suspects. These people would never vote for any Democrat. And I hate to oversimplify, but most racists in general already vote Republican.
funny you say that because:
Democrats started the KKK
Let me respond.
You say the KKK was founded by Democrats. I suppose Nathan Bedford Forrest and the other ex-Confederate officers might have been identified as Democrats. But the Democratic party of the south was different from that in the north. George McClellan was regarded as an appeaser of rebellion in some corners, but not as a racist.
And very early in the Klan's ascendency in the 20th century, it became clear that the KKK had many powerful Republican AND Democratic friends. Governor Ed Jackson of Indiana was a Republican and a very good friend of the Klan and D.C. Stephenson. Stephenson was a socialist and then a Democrat early on. But he became enraged by those parties' support for poor and marginalized peoples. He formally switched to the Republican Party because it's views were more friendly to the KKK, which he headed. So Democratic ties to the Klan, while not completely cut until the 70's, were already dying off in the 1920's. Harry Truman famous referred to Klansmen as Ku Klux Sons of B*tches.
And as an aside...where in hell did you get the idea Mel Gibson is a Democrat?
