Thread: Why are African Americans brainwashed about illegal immigration?

You might also let black Americans you know or have contact with that the US Civil Rights Act was written by Republicans and introduced into Congress and passed in 1866 including its own fair housing clause. In 1875, Republicans passed another US Civil Rights Act signed into law by Ulysses S Grant, Republican, and this was the enforcement act that assured equal rights in public accommodations, public transportation and jury service. Unfortunately, the US Supreme Court overturned much of it and it became more or less useless. With that Supreme Court Ruling prevaling, there wasn't much Republicans believed it could do until 1954, when a lawsuit was possible, famous, called Brown versus the Board of Education, concerning school segregation. Dwight Eisenhower, Republican, on behalf of the United States Government filed a magnificent amicus brief supporting Brown to end school segregation. They won the case and by law school segregation was now over.

Then feeling more hopeful about the US Supreme Court, Eisenhower pushed for another US Civil Civil Rights Law, picking up where the 1875 law had been overturned, but this time instead of defending it if need be on the 14th Amendment as the government had done in 1875, they were going to argue and defend it under the commerce clause of th US Constitution. So away they went with the new bill. It passed. Gerald Ford (Republican) was the minority whip of the House at that time, and totally brilliant. He decided to make a deal of some sort with Lyndon Johnson to go with him on this. Together they pushed it through, but the US Senate, gutted it and although it passed and made some progress, the really important stuff had been cut out by the US Senate. Such Senators as John Kennedy voted against it even with it being gutted. That's why Republicans for the most part could never stand the Kennedys. Yes, JOHN F KENNEDY VOTED AGAINST the 1957 US Civil Rights Act. Ooh, if only black Americans knew the truth about their own history.

Then in 1964, Republicans tried again, but we were the minority, but Lyndon Johnson was now President of the United States, Lyndon Johnson who had worked with Gerald Ford to try to pass the US Civil Rights Act in 1957. So they all pounced on Lyndon and said this is the time, it must be done and it must be done now. And voila, it was. Republicans voted 80% in favor of the US Civil Rights Act, it was their bill, they wrote it, it all came from the 1875 US Civil Rights Act. And our friend Lyndon Johnson signed that beauty into law. Democrats only voted 55% for the bill. Without the enormous support of the Republicans, it would have never been introduced, it would have never passed and we'd still be a Jim Crow, black codes country.

There was still one thing left to do and that was get the Voting Rights Act, because that section had been removed from the 1964 bill by Democrats because it was an election year. A Republican US Senator, Everett Dirkssen, wrote the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and with the elections over the bill passed, and Lyndon Johnson still President with his election in 1964, signed that important bill into law as well.

But our work wasn't finished. There was still school segregation in the South, in defiance of the US Supreme Court Ruling in Brown versus Board of Education. Then we have a new President, Richard Nixon, Republican. And in 1970, just 2 years into his new administration he decided to enforce the law and end desegregation in the South, the last place school segregation existed. He met with all the leaders and Governors of all the states, even went to Louisiana to meet with them in a hotel meeting room, and his message was clear, we can do this the easy way with you all in charge or we can do it the hard way with federal troops, either way it's going to be done and it's your choice how.

And so it was, the states desegregated the schools on their own with the feds watching. Nixon gave all credit to the southern states, bragged on their efforts and silently for all practical purposes ended this last piece of black discrimination in our country.

So all these years, all the glory of the civil rights movement has gone to Democrats, because of Lyndon Johnson, and the "movement" of Martin Luther King and the marches and the sit downs and all of that. Republicans never cared. They never used their efforts to campaign or win elections or take credit. For over 100 years, they were only interested in the outcome, not the credit.

People have to remember that black Americans are the reason our party was formed, to end slavery and establish equal rights for them.

Something else you should know as well. Democrats have told this horrible lie about Union Troops for 150 years, claiming they were all drafted and forced to fight the South in the war by Lincoln. That isn't true at all. 2,050,000 Americans, almost all Republicans, fought in the Civil War for the Union. 2,000,000 of those were volunteers. Men who walked off their farms, their homes, and out of the businesses to fight the bloodiest war ever fought by Americans to free 4,000,000 black slaves in the South. The story about the draftees is based on a 90 day draft in New York in I think it was 1962 where there was a brief shortage and there were approximately 48,000 people drafted during that brief 90 day period. So the Union Army were volunteers, committed to a mission to end slavery. They weren't fighting for "taxes" or "holding our union together". They risked their lives, their homes, farms and businesses, to free 4 million black people held in bondage in the South.

The troops wrote a song called the John Brown song, they marched to it, sang it around campfires. It was about John Brown and the slave revolt in Harper's Ferry, West Virginia. Important people in DC noticed this song being sung around the Union Army camps and one day when the troops were part of some event in DC, a pastor heard it and he got with a writer and said this is a nice song, could you spruce it up abit. She said yeah, I can do that, and she did. That song became the Battle Hymn of the Republic. So every time you hear it, we need to remember the brave and good men of the Union Army that ended one of the worst abominations in human history. The United States because of Republicans, is the only nation in the history of the world to fight a Civil War to end slavery. And they did so, because the last non-violent means to end it otherwise died with the Dred Scott Decision of the United States Supreme Court that sent a man freed in one state back to a slave state to his former owner. What kind of people could do such a thing to someone?

The honor given to the United States Supreme Court, in my opinion, has not been earned because it failed our black Americans at virtually every turn. If Dwight Eisenhower hadn't filed the amicus brief on behalf of black Americans, they wouldn't have even ruled right then in that case.

Take Barry Goldwater. Called a racist and his vote against the US Civil Rights Act of 1964 cost him the Presidency. But that isn't the real story of Barry Goldwater. He voted against the act because an important constitutional scholar advised him that it would be overturned by the US Supreme Court and Barry thought another failure at the US Supreme Court would be the final blow to any future civil rights progress. It was a mistake, but I understand his view based on the many precedents of the US Supreme Court against civil rights for black Americans. But the real story of Barry Goldwater is that he was a civil rights activist. He integrated his family's business in Phoenix years before it was fashionable to do so. He worked to integrate the Phoenix Public School system and did. When he was Adjutant General of the Arizona National Guard, he integrated the Arizona National Guard. Barry was the complete opposite of a racist, he was a Republican civil rights leader. But none of this was ever reported, it's in the history, just never reported, never really discussed during the campaign, and no hay was made of it, because Republicans have always refused to take credit for anything they did for black Americans. They just did it and in all honesty, they did it all. They just never talk about it. And the reason my parents tell me is that it was just understood that no Republican wanted someone to vote for them because of it, they were doing it because it was right and had to be done, not to win elections or brag about it. It's the same reason our Troops from WWII came home, didn't want a Memorial, and never talked about the war, in fact refused to do so.

I understand the humbleness of that attitude, but at some point the silence becomes counter-productive because unless Republicans tell the true story, no one else will, so black Americans never know and to me that is unfair to them. They deserve the knowledge, they've earned the truth and it needs to be told. Otherwise, they remain a type of ghetto slave to the people who enslaved them to begin with.

So spread the news far and wide. And you can feel free to copy and paste any of my writings if you'd like and send them to anyone you want. You could put it on Facebook if you use it. Whatever it takes to get this important message out and about our country, even a lot of white ad Hispanic Americans probably don't know the truth either. Everyone needs to know. Not for credit, but to finish the job. Millions of black Americans trapped in inner city poverty is NOT what our 2,000,050 Union Soldiers fought for between 1861 and 1865 or what our dear Republicans worked so hard to achieve afterwards.

You might also tell them that Richard Nixon, Republican, established OSHA and the EPA and at the time the Democrats were getting their revenge on him for his civil rights work and ending their war in Vietnam, he was working on a 32 hour 4 day work week that would have kicked in over-time pay for workers after 32 hours. His thinking was that with 2 people working in most households and with the long commutes so many were enduring, that their work days were actually much longer and harder than they were with 1 person working 40 hours, so thus they needed a 3rd day to take care of business, enjoy their families and have more leisure time to have healthy and happy lives. He also saw that with automation there would be less jobs in the future, and a 4 day work week would help prepare for that.

But the CORRUPT MEDIA, the FBI and the DemoQuacks took him down, didn't they? Over a stupid break-in he had nothing to do with except to maybe cover it up to protect his guys. Gerald Ford lost his election over the Nixon Pardon, and Americans ended up with Jimmy Carter and the beginning not of a 32 hour work week, but massive immigration that has run out of control for 35 years since which has been one of the key reasons why black Americans are still behind, still suffering, and still dealing with discrimination in our country.

And now rides in Donald J Trump, Republican, and he's going to finish the job that we thought was finished but in reality really wasn't quite finished. Trump will end this immigration travesty, grind it to a halt and fix the problems it has caused for all Americans, especially black Americans. He will fix these ghettos, he will break down the traps, and set them free from this awful poverty.

Thanks for reading!!

Democratic and Republican Ideologies Undergo Dramatic Role Reversal
06/13/2013 09:24 am ET | Updated Aug 13, 2013

  Rich Rubino Author, ‘The Political Bible of Humorous Quotations from American Politics,’ ‘Make Every Vote Equal What a Novel Idea,’ and ‘The Political Bible of Little Known Facts in American Politics’

The Democratic and Republican Parties have undergone a long transition from their founding ideological principles. The Democrats started out as the conservative party but are now the liberal party, and the Republicans were once the liberal party but are now the conservative party.

The Democratic Party we know today evolved from the conservative Democratic-Republican Party of the 1790’s. The first contested Presidential election was in 1796. The Democratic-Republican Party nominated the conservative Thomas Jefferson as their first presidential nominee. Party members were anti-federalists who favored state sovereignty, free markets, a decentralized federal government, and an originalist interpretation of the U.S. Constitution and the attendant Bill of Rights. The Democratic-Republican Party also supported the institution of slavery.

Democratic President Martin Van Buren presided over the panic of 1837, and during that time he was steadfastly opposed to using the government as a means of employing workers on public works projects. In fact, during this economic depression Van Buren literally sold the federal government’s tool supply so that the government could not use the tools for public works projects. This ideological mindset is diametrically opposite of the economic stimulus proposals that contemporary Democrats now support and advocate for, especially during periods of economic morass.

Similarly, the Republican Party has also experienced significant ideological alterations. Founded in 1856, it was the liberal counterweight to the conservative Democratic Party, opposing the expansion of slavery, supporting more money for public education, and advocating a more liberal immigration policy.

The original liberal bent of the Republican Party is especially evidenced by the 1888 Presidential election where Republican Benjamin Harrison was elected President by advocating a liberal platform. He favored expanding the money supply, expanding the protective tariff, and allocating munificent funding for social services. Harrison lost his re-election bid in 1892 to Democrat Grover Cleveland, who advocated a conservative platform, including maintaining the gold standard, reducing the protective tariff, and supporting a lassie faire approach to government intervention in the economy.

Then in 1896 as the country was mired in another depression, there was a move afoot in the Democratic Party to abandon the conservative orthodoxy of Van Buren and Cleveland, and to undertake a radically different ideological approach. To the chagrin of the Democratic high command, the party took a leap of faith when it nominated the 36-year-old firebrand populist William Jennings Bryan. Nicknamed “The Great Commoner,” Bryan advocated a liberal platform. He opposed the gold standard, advocated an interventionist role for the government in the economy, and supported an expansion of the money supply. He was the first liberal to win the Democratic Party Presidential nomination. This represented a radical departure from the conservative roots of the Democratic Party.

In response to the nomination of Bryan by the Democrats, the Republican Party countered by straying away from its liberal beginnings and nominating the moderate-conservative Ohio Governor William McKinley, who, like Harrison, was a proponent of a strong protective tariff, but who, unlike Harrison, favored the Gold Standard. This incensed many old-line progressive Republicans. Some even defected to the Democratic Party to support Bryan. McKinley won handily and was re-elected in a rematch with Bryan in 1900.

The paradigm of the Democrats being the center-right party and the Republicans being the center-left party remained for much of the nineteenth century. However, this all changed when the Democrats nominated William Jennings Bryan, ushering in a transitional era where both parties had a significant liberal and a significant conservative bloodline.

Nomination battles within both parties were usually battles between conservative and progressive wings of each party. In 1912, the Progressive former President Theodore Roosevelt challenged the more conservative incumbent President William Howard Taft for the Republican Party nomination. Though Taft won just one primary, Massachusetts, he garnered the Party’s nomination by winning enough delegates at the Republican National Convention in Chicago. Roosevelt, who won nine Republican primaries, bolted the party and formed the Progressive Party, a.k.a. the Bull Moose Party, and won 86 electoral votes in the General Election. Taft won just eight Electoral Votes. The Democratic nominee, New Jersey Governor Woodrow Wilson, mustered 435 Electoral votes and won the Presidential Election in a landslide victory.

Similarly, in 1924 there was opposition from the progressive wing of the GOP when conservative Calvin Coolidge pocketed the Republican Presidential nomination. Coolidge, who assumed the Presidency on the death of Warren G. Harding in 1923, was challenged for the Republican nomination by U.S. Senator Hiram Johnson (R-CA). Johnson defeated Coolidge in the South Dakota primary, but failed to garner much electoral traction. With the Democrats also nominating a conservative, John W. Davis, disgruntled Progressives in both major parties deserted their nominees and supported the newly formed Progressive Party, which nominated Republican Robert M. La Follette Sr. for President and Democrat Burton Wheeler for Vice President. The ticket won a formidable 16.6% of the popular vote. Twelve liberal Republican U.S. House members supported the La Follette Candidacy and were expelled from the Republican caucus by conservative U.S. House Speaker Nicholas Longworth (R-OH).

Liberals and conservatives had an uneasy cohabitation in both parties. In the South, opposition to Lyndon B. Johnson’s Great Society emanated from what came to be known as “the conservative coalition,” consisting of conservative (mostly Southern) Democrats and Western Republicans.

In their 1976 bid for their respective party’s nomination, Republican Ronald Reagan and Democrat George C. Wallace fought for the same conservative voters. After Wallace lost the Democratic Primary in Florida and his chances at securing his party’s nomination were dim, the Reagan campaign ran an advertisement urging Wallace supporters to cross over and vote for Reagan in the Republican Primary. A voter appearing in the advertisement intones: “I’ve been a Democrat my whole life, a conservative Democrat. As much as I hate to admit it, Wallace can’t be nominated, Ronald Reagan can.”

Since that time, there has been a gradual ideological homogeneity within both parties. Conservative Democrats and Liberal Republican were either defeated for re-election, retired from office, or became Republicans.

Over the last decade we have witnessed the near end of progressive Republicans. This is evidenced by the defeat of U.S. Representatives Connie Morella of Maryland and Christopher Shays of Connecticut, and by the egressing from the GOP of former U.S. Senators James Jeffords of Vermont and Lincoln Chaffee of Rhode Island, both liberal Republicans.

The final nail in the coffin for conservative Democrats occurred in 2010 when the three most conservative Democratic members of the U.S. House of Representatives (Bobby Bright (AL), Walt Minnick (ID), and Gene Taylor (MS)) lost their re-election bids. All three representatives voted against President Barack Obama’s Stimulus Plan, the Cap-and-Trade legislation, and the Health Care Reform package.

With the stock of liberal Republicans and conservative Democrats nearly depleted, the Republican Party is now the conservative party and the Democratic Party is now the liberal party. This is an ideological reversal. The U.S. now mirrors many parliamentary systems in that the ideological outliers are de-minimis. Outliers who get elected are also usually the most electorally vulnerable in that they invariably represent states and Congressional districts inhospitable to their party’s ideology. The Republican Party, once the liberal party is now the conservative Party. The Democratic Party, once the conservative party is now the liberal Party. The ideological role reversal is now complete.

The Democratic Party is not a liberal party, they are a socialist, globalist, authoritarian party of poop.

What has changed the Republican Party isn't a change in political ideology, it's been the influence of politicized religion. I'm confident it will work itself out though, because it must.

The problem is the Two Party system. Trump is president not because he is a real Republican, but because he nearly went it alone, without any party.

The Republican Party suffers just like the Democrat Party because neither one is a real political party any more, just figureheads for a perpetual fake debate run by political parties that really don't have any argument about anything any more.

The solution is the destruction of the Two Party system. End the collection of party affiliation for purposes of voter registration nation wide. It is nobody's business, certainly not the government's business, to know what your party affiliation is. Anyone concerned about government tyranny must object to reporting to the government what your political party is.

Thanks for the info Judy. I've copied this entire post to a word document so I have more time to dissect it and research it. Democrats are nothing but snakes in the grass that use people for their own advantage. It's time we opened people's eyes about Democrats, especially the black population.

I couldn't agree more. Democrats ARE socialists. Although I personally don't see much of a difference between democrats and communists.

You're very welcome, 6 Million Dollar Man. And yes, it is time we tell all Americans, especially black Americans the truth about the Republican Party. Thank you for helping us do that! Thank you very very much.

You're very welcome Judy. And thank you for the enormous contributions you make on this site and the great information that you provided me with. I will try to put this information to good use. Thank you again!!

You are correct. Democrats are socialists & neomarxists,brainwashed by activists from the left & ultra left for decades.

U.S. Civil Rights Commissioner: Illegal Immigration Disproportionately Harms Black Americans

Illegal and low-skilled immigration disproportionally harms the job prospects and wages of black Americans, Peter Kirsanow, a commissioner on the U.S. Civil Rights Commission, told a Senate panel Wednesday.

“Unequivocally, the wages and employment levels of black Americans are disproportionately adversely affect by illegal immigration. Particularly when it pertains to the effect on black males,” Kirsanow testified before the Senate Subcommittee on Immigration and the National Interest.
Kirsanow, also a partner with Benesch, Friedlander, Coplan & Aronoff LLP noted that although the commission has been studying the issue of illegal immigration on black Americans and has been provided with overwhelming proof of the adverse effects, he was not testifying on behalf of the commission.
“The evidence shows that the reason for [the adverse impact] is actually pretty basic,” he said.

Black Americans, especially black males, are disproportionally concentrated in the low-skilled labor market and are disproportionately more likely to have no more than a high school diploma. Likewise illegal immigrants, disproportionately concentrated in the low skilled labor market and disproportionately more likely to have low levels of academic achievement and these two groups compete with each other in the low skilled labor market.

He continued, “The competition is often most fierce in those industries in which blacks have traditionally, historically had high concentrations of employment such as hospitality, service, construction, agriculture, and blacks very often lose out in this competition to illegal immigrants.”
According to Kirsanow the reason black Americans and other low skilled American workers lose out is largely due to employer’s ability to offer lower wages to illegal workers.
“It’s not because low skilled American workers, regardless of race, are unwilling to perform such jobs, it is that they are unwilling to do such jobs at the cut-rate wages and sometime sub-standard working conditions tendered to illegal immigrants,” Kirsanow said, noting illegal immigrants are unlikely to complaint to government agencies about those poor working conditions.


The negative affects of these phenomena, he said, are most prevalent in metropolitan areas and during times like the current economic stagnation.
“Since the beginning of the 2008 recession there has been an increase of 2 million working-aged blacks in the population,” he said. “However, during the same period of time, the number of blacks currently in the workforce was also 2 million less, so that there has been no net increase in the number of employed blacks — despite a substantial increase in the black population. What is curious about that though, is that in the same period of time, 4.4 million more foreign-born worked were employed in the United States.”
Kirsanow argued that in addition to the negative economic prospects, the displacement causes negative societal problems as well with lower employment rates leading to more imprisonment and reduced family formation.
