Biden: Romney will "put ya'll back in chains"

Last I checked it was Republicans who voted in the Civil Rights act.

What exactly have Democrats ever done for African Americans?

Wait, Lyndon Johnson was a Republican?

I believe he's referring to the many Republicans in Congress who voted for the Civil Rights Act. You know, those dreaded "RINO" moderates.

Barry Goldwater and other conservatives like the Southern Democrats didn't vote for it, of course.

Another classic Biden gaffe.  The party that tried to keep blacks in chains accusing the party that unchained them of trying to put Americans "back in chains."

Yeah, talk about ingrates with this "what have you done for me lately" attitude.  I mean it was only a 150 years ago.

Yeah, but for over 100 years after the Civil War, Democrats oppressed blacks by fighting against bans on lynching, racial segregation, and protecting blacks against the KKK.  Republicans consistently fought for freedom for blacks and continue to do so by encouraging work to make them independent of government assistance.

Even if this were 100% true it is goddamned irrelevant.  All of these people are dead. Where are all the Republicans trying to claim the mantle of Lincoln's protectionist policies.  It is a holllow and ridiculous talking point. 

Your last sentence appears to be the same more of the same wedge rhetoric that the party has used for decades to scare/piss off working class white people. Mind you the party hasn't done anything for them either. 

It was, I'll remind you, the Republican Party that ended slavery and advocated civil rights. Saying 'modern members of the Republican Party' haven't done anything for blacks is a defensible position; saying 'the Republican Party' hasn't is not.

*facepalm*

2. A massive democrat skew is anything greater than 2/3rd Democrat.

What are the Republican percentages for white evangelical Protestants and Mormons again?

When you're a minority group, you tend to concentrate your votes in one party so that your influence isn't diluted.

So I take it you don't believe in trickle-down economics.
