In regards to racial relations, here is an interesting tidbit:
Republicans in Congress actually supported the two most important civil rights bills on record, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, in higher percentages than Democrats did. In the House, 80 percent of Republicans voted for the Civil Rights Act, compared with only 63 percent of Democrats. In the Senate, 82 percent of Republicans supported the legislation, compared with 69 percent of Democrats.
it was about interracial marriage not same sex.So? Do you really expect everybody of every race, religion, cultural background is going to believe in same sex marriage?

Yep, this was when the Republicans were the more liberal of the two parties. The parties then made an ideological switch in the seventies, resulting in Democrats being for individual freedom (hence why black people are more likely to vote Dem) and Republicans. . .not.In regards to racial relations, here is an interesting tidbit:

Of course not all of it. Key word in my original statement being "most". Stuff like this can't be rationalized. You said the south is a a joke. The south has a very rich, and very eclectic culture. To make a sweeping statement about a region that many residents consider to be its own nation is a prejudicial generalization. Saying most blacks are violent is a prejudiced statement, no? So is saying most people in the south are a joke. The silly opinions of Mississipi republicans doesn't change that.

Well the South was Democratic until the 60's and the parties basically switched because of Civil Rights. The Democrats of today have very little in common with the Democrats of the past.In regards to racial relations, here is an interesting tidbit:

Well the South was Democratic until the 60's and the parties basically switched because of Civil Rights. The Democrats of today have very little in common with the Democrats of the past. Yes, but what do southern democrats think? This poll is all nice and such, but it takes things out of context. What percentage of mississippit democrats view interracial marriage as illegal? That would help put things into context as opposed to simply presenting only one side. And were these 400 republicans a random sampling, or did the survey taker simply stop off at a KKK meeting and take a poll there?[QUOTE="sonicare"]
