The '''Democratic Party'''<ref>This is the official name of the party.[https://www.democrats.org/about/our-party/party-organization].

A core tenet of the Democratic party is opposition to the principle of "one person, one vote", be it the original insistence on a [[Three-Fifths Compromise|3/5's rule]] for minorities among its early promulgators or fractional vote rigging in the [[2020 Presidential election]].<ref>[https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/online-vulnerable-experts-find-nearly-three-dozen-u-s-voting-n1112436 'Online and vulnerable': Experts find nearly three dozen U.S. voting systems connected to internet], By Kevin Monahan, Cynthia McFadden and Didi Martinez, [[NBC News]], JAN. 10, 2020.</ref> As [[Candace Owens]] pointed out, [[illiteracy]] was used to control slaves and illiteracy among black males in many Blue state [[public school]] systems today is as high as 75%.

In 2020, elected Democrat mayors and governors threatened with arrest citizens going to church, funerals, graduation parties, or even playing with their children in public parks while giving license to violent leftwing mobs to riot, loot, burn down churches and shopping districts in minority communities, take taxpayers hostage in broad sections of a city, and to murder innocent people, including the police. When an armed mob of leftist insurrectionists took over and occupied a seven square block area of [[Seattle]], local and state elected Democrat officials did not respond to requests from citizens and taxpayers to protect property and liberate from oppression 8,000 residents held hostage.

Elected Democrat officials have refused to protect the lives and property of citizen taxpayers who voted for them, paid for emergency police, fire, and medical services, and pay their salary.
Democrats have become [[radical]]ized, [[elitism|elitist]], have abandoned the interests of working people, and their leaders have endorsed violence to promote "change." By contrast, the [[Republican Party]] is generally [[pro-life]] and pro-free enterprise, supporting lower taxes, gun rights, individual liberty, small responsible government,<ref>http://www.diffen.com/difference/Democrat_vs_Republican#Role_of_Government</ref> tolerance, the two party system, and the free, open exchange of ideas.
In [[Kentucky]], voters overwhelmingly rejected the Democrats' racist agenda, electing the state's first black [[Attorney General]] and first Republican in 70 years, [[Daniel Cameron]]. Four years earlier, Kentucky voters elected conservative Republican Jenean Hampton as the state's first black statewide elected official, and the Republican governor they elected, [[Matt Bevin]], had adopted four children from Ethiopia.

====Birth of the Klan====
:{{See also|Reconstruction}}
In 1866, [[Freemasonry|Masonic]] [[Democrat]]s formed the [[Ku Klux Klan]], whose purpose was to take control and return Democrats to power. The Ku Klux Klan started attacking Black Republican conventions. At the Republican convention in Louisiana, the Klan joined with [[New Orleans]] police and New Orleans' Democrat mayor. The New Orleans Republican convention was attacked. 40 Blacks and 20 whites were killed. Another 150 were wounded.

In 1868 the Democrats put out push cards in South Carolina listing what they called the 'radical' members of the South Carolina legislature. A push card is about the size of a baseball card. The cards had the pictures of 63 legislators they wanted to kill. 50 of the legislators were Black and 13 were white. All 63 were Republicans. On the back of the was the name of the legislator.
Cleveland was the leader of the [[Bourbon Democrats]], the [[bourgeois]] wing of the party. They represented business [[elitism|elites]], supported banking and railroad goals, promoted capitalism, opposed the annexation of [[Hawaii]], fought for the [[gold standard]], and opposed [[Bimetallism]]. They strongly supported ending Republican spoils with the [[Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act|Civil Service Reform Act]] and opposed corruption of city bosses, leading the fight against the Tweed Ring. The leading Bourbons included [[Samuel J. Tilden]], David Bennett Hill and William C. Whitney of New York, Arthur Pue Gorman of Maryland, Thomas F. Bayard of Delaware, William L. Wilson of West Virginia, [[John Griffin Carlisle]] of Kentucky, William F. Vilas of Wisconsin, J. Sterling Morton of Nebraska, John M. Palmer of Illinois, Horace Boies of Iowa, L.Q.C. Lamar of Mississippi, and railroad builder James J. Hill of Minnesota. A prominent intellectual was pro-segregationist [[Woodrow Wilson]]. The Bourbons were in power when the [[Panic of 1893]] hit; it was a deep depression and they took the blame. A fierce struggle inside the party ensued, with catastrophic losses for both the Bourbon and agrarian factions in 1894, leading to the showdown in 1896.
===Bryan and anti-Semitismantisemitism===
[[Grover Cleveland]] led the [[bourgeois]] [[Bourbon Democrat]]s but as the [[Panic of 1893|depression of 1893]] deepened his enemies multiplied. The Panic of 1893 started in February 1893, a full month before Cleveland became president. Convinced that the Sherman Silver Purchase Act, passed under the administration of [[Benjamin Harrison]], was largely responsible for the alarming drain on federal gold, President Cleveland called Congress into special session to urge its repeal. Congress consented, but only after bitter debate that divided the Democratic party into two hostile camps-the eastern "goldbugs" and the silver wing of the West and South that was to propel young [[William Jennings Bryan]] to the fore in 1896.<ref name="presidents" />
====FDR's Southern Strategy====
To win election, FDR forged a coalition of Northern Democrats and Southern segregationists by placing [[John Nance Garner]] of Texas on the ticket as his running mate. The Democrats won an overwhelming majority in the House, picked up 97 seats, bringing the total to 313. On the Republican side the first African-American in the 20th century, and the first since Reconstruction, Rep. [[Oscar De Priest]] was re-elected. The Democratic chairman of the new Congress' Committee on Accounts, Rep. Lindsay Warren, ordered a De Priest staffer and his son to be thrown out of the House's whites-only cafeteria. There was a separate facility for blacks in the basement. De Priest introduced a resolution calling for an investigation. On the House floor, De Priest refuted Warren's claim that African-Americans had always been banned from the restaurant, recalling that he and other black patrons had frequented the House cafeteria. De Priest implored his colleagues to support the resolution, remarking, {{quotebox-float|“If we allow segregation and the denial of constitutional rights under the Dome of the Capitol, where in God’s name will we get them? If we allow this challenge to go without correcting it, it will set an example where people will say Congress itself approves of segregation.”<ref>https://history.house.gov/People/Listing/D/DE-PRIEST,-Oscar-Stanton-(D000263)/</ref>}}
The effort to desegregate the Democrat-controlled House cafeteria was defeated. Civil rights were not on the party agenda. FDR always opposed the federal anti-lynching law as part of FDR's Southern Strategy. Anti-lynching bills were first introduced by Republicans. The [[Costigan–Wagner Act]] was introduced in 1934, calling on the Roosevelt administration to take an active role in ending [[lynching]] in the United States. Senators Edward Costigan of Colorado and Robert Wagner of New York sponsored the bill. Under its provisions, any state officer who failed to exercise diligence in protecting a person under their care from a lynch mob or who neglected to arrest persons involved in a lynching, could themselves be subject to federal imprisonment for five years and a $5,000 fine. In 1935 attempts were made to persuade Roosevelt to speak out in support of the bill. However, Roosevelt refused. He argued that the white voters in the South would never forgive him if he supported the bill and he would, therefore, lose the next election.
In 1937 FDR appointed Alabama Senator [[Hugo Black]] to the Supreme Court. Black was a member of the [[Ku Klux Klan]] and built his career campaigning at Klan meetings. Black was well known for his anti-[[Catholic]] viewpoints.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=WX2LcraS1EgC&pg=PA219 The Oxford Handbook of Church and State in the United States]</ref> In ''Korematsu v. the United States'', Black voted to uphold [[President Roosevelt]]'s mass arrests and incarceration of [[Japanese]] men, women, and children based on [[race]].
President Roosevelt called Democrat klansman Klansman Sen. [[Theodore Bilbo]] "a real friend of [[liberal]] [[government]]."<ref>[https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/new-deal-democrats-republican-party/ New Deal . . . Conservatives?] ''National Review''.

Retrieved September 14th, 2020.</ref> In a 1938 filibuster against anti-[[lynching]] legislation, Bilbo said on the [[Senate]] floor that the bill would “open the floodgates of [[hell]] in [[the South]]” by encouraging Black men to rape white women.<ref name="segregationinamerica.eji.org">https://segregationinamerica.eji.org/report/segregation-forever-leaders.html</ref>

Franklin Roosevelt's Georgia Warm Springs Polio Rehabilitation Center, founded by Roosevelt in the 1920s before he became president, maintained a Whites-only admission policy. This discrimination was sustained by a [[scientific]] argument about polio itself - that Blacks were not susceptible to the disease.<ref>''[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1854857/#!po=67.8125 Race and the Politics of Polio: Warm Springs, Tuskegee, and the March of Dimes]'', Naomi Rogers, PhD. American Journal of Public Health, May 2007.</ref> The center continued to practice [[racial discrimination]] into the 1960s until it was finally struck down by a federal Appeals Court ruling and changes made in the [[Civil Rights Act]].
====White privilege relief efforts====
{{See also|New Deal and Fascism}}
New Deal relief efforts targeted FDR's white Democrat voter base. A Black black Republican congressman attached a non-discrimination amendment, however Democrats put a ten percent quota system on Blacks who were suffering from higher incidence of poverty and unemployment than whites or the population in general. In more prosperous times 30 years later the War on Poverty was the New Deal in reverse, targeting Blacks with the assumption that all Blacks were poor and uneducated. Both the New Deal and Great Society were predicated on Marxist [[class warfare]].
Journalist John Flynn reported on a Senate investigation into cronyism and corruption in New Deal programs in Kentucky. Similar abuses were found throughout the nation. {{quotebox|"The WPA foremen were given a sheet upon which they had to report on the standing of the reliefers in the political campaign. It became a part of [[Harry Hopkins|Mr. [Harry] Hopkins]]' [[WPA]] organization in Kentucky to learn how many of the down-and-out had enough devotion to Franklin D. Roosevelt to be entitled to eat. It was not sufficient for an indigent Kentuckian to be just down and out and hungry. He had to believe that the President of the United States was his redeemer and had to be ready to register that belief at the polls. The reliefers were asked to sign papers pledging themselves to the election of the senior senator from Kentucky. They were given campaign buttons and told to wear them and there were instances where, if they refused, they were thrown off the WPA rolls.<br>All this, of course, was in a Democratic primary where only Democrats could vote. But there were a lot of poor Republicans in Kentucky who couldn't vote in the Democratic primary so long as they were Republicans. So they were told to change their registration and become Democrats, or no WPA jobs for them.}}
After [[Kristallnacht]] in November 1938, many Jews within Germany decided that it was time to leave. The ''S.S St. Louis'' carrying 937 passengers, most of them Jewish, set sail from Hamburg to [[Cuba]] on May 13, 1939. In Cuba the passengers were denied entrance without posting a $500 bond. A few dozen passengers disembarked. The ship set sail for Florida.
The pro-Fascist, Nazi-sympathizing senator Robert R. Reynolds of [[North Carolina]], a lifelong Democrat,<ref>Pleasants, Julian M. (1994). [https://www.ncpedia.org/biography/reynolds-robert-rice Reynolds, Robert Rice]. ''NCPedia''. Retrieved March 10, 2024.</ref> was an active opponent of the Wagner–Rogers Bill which would have allowed thousands of European Jews to flee Nazism and enter the United States as refugees.<ref>[https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/wagner-rogers-bill Wagner-Rogers Bill]. ''United States Holocaust Memorial Museum''. Retrieved March 10, 2024.</ref> Reynolds's brazen antisemitism reflected a cold attitude towards the plight of Jewry present among the majority American population at the time, ideologically stemming from the xenophobic, racist legacy of the Progressive Era.
Once in Florida waters, Sec. of State [[Cordell Hull]] advised President Roosevelt to deny the Jews [[asylum]]. The [[U.S. Coast Guard]] and planes followed the ''St. Louis'' to prevent it from landing.<ref>https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/the-tragedy-of-s-s-st-louis</ref>
African-Americans formed an anomalous coalition with low-income white Democrat racists who were dependent on New Deal and Great Society [[welfare]] programs.<ref>"Chicago 1969: Assumed to be natural enemies, these groups united in their calls for [[economic justice]]." [http://theconversation.com/chicago-1969-when-black-panthers-aligned-with-confederate-flag-wielding-working-class-whites-68961 When Black Panthers aligned with Confederate-flag-wielding, working-class whites], Colette Gaiter, ''The Conversation'', January 8, 2017.</ref> Both African Americans and racist Democrats opposed Republican efforts to maintain fiscal and budgetary sanity. The coalition gave cover to bigoted Democrats to hide their racism, while accusing Republicans who wanted to balance the budget of prejudice. [[Malcolm X]] described it this way: {{quotebox-float|"The white Liberal differs from the white Conservative only in one way; the Liberal is more [[deceit]]ful, more hypocritical, than the Conservative. Both want power, but the White Liberal is the one who has perfected the art of posing as the Negro's friend and benefactor and by winning the friendship and support of the Negro, the White Liberal is able to use the Negro as a pawn or a weapon in this political football game, that is constantly raging, between the White Liberals and the White Conservatives. The American Negro is nothing, but a political "football game" that is constantly raging between the white liberals and white conservatives.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7YmjWW9tx4</ref>}}
Contrary to popular Democrat mythology, Democrat Governor [[George Wallace]] won [[the South]] in 1968 in a three-way contest against Nixon and Humphrey. There was no Nixon "[[Southern Strategy]]." The South continued to reject Yankee (classical) liberals (Humphrey in 1968, McGovern in 1972, Mondale in 1984, Dukakis in 1988, Kerry in 2004). At the state and local level, the Republicans made slow but steady gains. As racism in the South declined, Republicans in the South increased.<ref>https://youtu.be/ol7OMGBDMao</ref>
The South became competitive in presidential politics as early as the 1920s and by 1980 gave strong support to Republican Ronald Reagan, rejecting northern liberal candidates.<ref>https://www.prageru.com/videos/why-did-democratic-south-become-republican</ref> Democrats responded with a new Southern Strategy - putting Southerners at the top of the ticket - Carter in 1976 and 1980, Clinton in 1992 and 1996, Gore in 2000, and calling Yankee Republicans "racist."
