As I am already 68, I personally know what happened in the 60's because I lived it.  The democrats, both North and South, have always been the racist bigots that they remain today.  As LBJ was merging with the evil progressives, they needed a new way to control the Black citizens, so he came up with the "Great Society" and a bunch of other socialist ideas to entrap the poor people in our Republic, promising all kinds of wonderful things, but still needing the Republicans to pass his Civil Rights Bill, because the democrats, both North and South refused to go along with any idea of integration of the races.  The wonderful Robert Bird of West Virginia even filibustered against it!  I seem to remember how Hillary praised him as her mentor, but I could be mistaken(?)  Then there is Senator Fulbright, a very strong and vocal KKK member, who was the mentor of a certain William Jefferson Clinton.  But we all know that Bill was considered the "first Black President".  So when the democrats.
