OMG! The Dems in 1868 were racist!

Shocking. And in 1804, Democrats like Aaron Burr were pro-dueling.

I think this is sarcasm, guys. Anyone who begins a thread with "OMG" can't be serious.

That was the Democratic-Republicans.  Andrew Jackson founded the Democratic Party in 1828 out of one of the factions in the Democratic-Republicans following the disputed 1824 presidential election.

The thread title is due to the moderator who split this off from the thread it was originally a part of.

Make no mistake: I realize that just about every political party has some skeletons in its closet, but it's also important not to ignore those entirely.

Dems were the GODLESS PARTY pertaining to slavery during the Civil War days, but the Democratic party in 1912 went from the states rights party to the Labour party when Woodrow Wilson who was his mentor Karl Marx and Jennings-Bryan implimented the Income Tax and blacks benefitted greatly from that during the New Deal era. But it was Truman who was the true Civil Rights hero to blacks.

I'll bet blacks benefited greatly under Woodrow Wilson too.
