There's racists among every party and every race.

However, I wonder if most people understand that the KKK was the enforcement arm of the Democratic party for many years and was also founded by the democrats. I also wonder if people know that George Wallace, the 2 time Dem presidential candidate in the 60s, was a symbol of segregation and had close ties to the KKK.

Apparently, the fake news media does not:

Oh and this tidbit, which I enjoyed:

There is a reason I don't watch mainstream news. It smells of commie perfume.

You do realize that the Democrats (Conservatives) of the time when the KKK came about and the Republicans of Lincoln (Liberals) are the exact opposite of what they are now? The Dixie-Crats, as they were called, are now Republicans (Conservatives). Similarly, the Republicans of Lincoln are pretty much Democrats (Liberals) now.

Why should I realize that? CNN and MSNBC do not share your views on that subject, either. Otherwise, they'd not be of the opinion that George Wallace was a Republican.
Also, George Wallace was the Dem nominee in the 1960s. This is just slightly after the KKK was founded in the 19th century. Maybe the Democrats and Republicans flip flopped in the 1960s? Tell me, I don't know.
After all, I'm just a poor immigrant and I'm not familiar with your strange country.

The difference is, that Pence was not a pivotal part of a sitting US government, thereby not in danger of giving out government secrets. I understand that Indiana's State secrets are of vast interest to Rusisa and China, so you might be on to something here.

BTW, I also have a private email. Now I'm beginning to wonder if the state secrets of Northridge might be compromised. Good thing I saw your post.

I shall delete my email account immediately!
