Yes, the Democrats filibustered for 75 calendar days. It passed despite 100% Democrats voting AGAINST IT.

What’s the source?

Correct. The Democrat party is the party of real discrimination, racism, destruction, death, and evil. Note historical facts below: Democrat judges (7) sought to deny blacks the right of US citizenship and thus constitutional protections following the civil war. The two dissenting justices were Republican. See Dredd Scott decision. Democrats created the Ku Klux Klan to control and intimidate blacks. Democrats started lynching Blacks. Democrats started the civil war to retain their slaves and slavery as an institution. Democrat legislators denied blacks the right to vote, but wanted their slaves counted for greater legislative representation, to continue and ensure slavery in perpetuity. Democrats denied blacks the right to own guns (so KKK intimidation would be more effective). Footnote: White Republican militias were formed to oppose and fight the KKK to protect blacks. Democrats lawmakers crafted “Jim Crow” laws to separate blacks from whites, and to limit black businesses and black prosperity. Democrat Bull Connor, Alabama Commissioner of Safety, unleashed police dogs and fire hoses against “uppity” blacks during actually peaceful protests (unlike BLM ‘peaceful’ protests that burn down businesses and result in looting). Bull Connor was on the DNC. Democrats implemented the welfare state and government dependence which lead to the destruction of the family unit (think ‘baby mommas’ and the dramatic rise of the single parent family, especially amongst blacks). Democrats resisted the Equal Rights Act and Equal Rights Amendment. Democrats support Planned Parenthood founded by Margaret Sanger who described blacks as “human weeds”, which is why they are prevalent in black communities. The Republican Party was founded specifically to end slavery in the U.S. At the time of the civil war, no Republicans owned slaves. All slave owners were Democrats. The most violent, economically depressed, and worst run cities in the nation are run by Democrats; their cities have the highest crime rates and the lowest educational standards. Democrats lie about this country and claim we are a democracy only to push their illicit party; we are and always have been a Constitutional Republic (does this help narrow down the only true American political party?). The word ‘democracy’ does not appear in the US Constitution, the Bill of Rights, or the Declaration of Independence at all. The founding fathers warned of the dangers of ‘democracy’ in their personal letters (pls figure out why; it’s very simple). The Democrat party abandoned the Republic long ago (look up their original name) to push their fallacy. Following his victory in the civil war against pro-slave Democrats, Republican President Lincoln freed all slaves. He was thus subsequently assassinated by a Democrat (note that even long ago, Democrats began resorting to violence). Lincoln was succeeded by his VP, a Democrat who opposed the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments (abolishing slavery, giving blacks citizenship, giving blacks voting rights). These Amendments passed only because of universal support by Republicans. The 19th Amendment granting the right to vote for women was opposed by Democrats four times and only passed when Republicans finally gained a majority in Congress. Called the ‘Susan B Anthony Amendment’, its namesake was arrested for voting. Her voting choices: all Republicans running for office. During each election cycle, Democrats have to raise more money and spend more because it takes a lot to overcome common sense, over-ride principles, supersede moral values, and to push false narratives. Democrats have denigrated the role of religion in society. Democrats break the 10 Commandments: they are the first to shout “racist” as a way of shutting down opposition (by bearing false witness against their neighbors). Democrats slander and produce false witnesses against persons of opposing political views (see Clarence Thomas and Brett Kavanaugh nominations, and media coverage of Trump’s first term). Democrats stopped “The Pledge of Allegiance” from being recited in schools. Republican President Dwight Eisenhower introduced the Civil Rights Bill in 1957; not a single Republican Senator opposed it; 18 Democrats (including Lyndon Johnson) opposed it via filibuster. The first Black members of Congress were all Republican. All 23 of them. Col. Lynch - for whom the term “lynching” was derived - had a “vigilance” party in Virginia that supported law and order, and that captured and tried criminals. Once Democrats founded the Ku Klux Klan, they adopted the “vigilance” concept and turned it to their own nefarious purpose of targeting Blacks, thus giving rise to “vigilantism” and the “lynching” of Blacks to instill fear and control, and suppress them. Knowing that the more one learns of our history, the more one loves our country, Democrats have removed US History, Political Studies, Civics from graduation criteria in schools, universities and colleges. Democrats are co-joined and co-opted by organizations with US membership that seek to infiltrate and destroy the US (Antifa, BLM, Soros, Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR, etc). These groups promote cultural Marxism and anarchy while claiming to be Americans. Democrats are always the first to resort to violence to achieve their goals. The Southern Poverty Law Center published a survey in June 2022 that found nearly half of young Democratic males approve “of assassinating a politician who is harming our country or democracy”. The recent most high profile public figures caught perpetrating crimes or facing accusers for their evil acts are Democrats: Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Epstein, Bernie Madoff, Gilhaine Maxwell, Kevin Spacey, Hunter Biden, James Franco. These persons are supported by fellow Democrats (Clintons, Obamas, Hollywood stars) until their evil becomes excessive and irrefutable. Only then are they abandoned. Democrats are the only party that holds up racial dividers as truth sayers and sages (J. Jackson, A. Sharpton, S. Abrams, A. Rye). Democrats are the only party to riot, loot, destroy, pillage when they lose fair elections. (See public agitation encouraged by M. Waters and others) Democrats cheat, break the rules or change the rules to win elections (look up voting fraud cases). Why do you think Democrats oppose voter ID? Democrats constantly belittle and undermine Christianity while embracing Islam, as though they don’t understand or don’t care that Islam detests democratic principles, subjugates women, and calls for death to homosexuals. Democrats have moved further left since JFK, the last Democrat President who was a lifetime member of the NRA, sought to lower taxes, and wanted to cut government hand-outs. Democrats comprise 75% of mass shooters. Criminals who either have assassinated or attempted to assassinate police officers sitting in their vehicles have all been Democrats. Democrats are the only party to embrace socialism as though they cannot or do not learn from history, and ignore that millions of people have died as a result of socialism. Democrats comprise the party which fails to collectively comprehend that capitalism raises the living standards for all. Democrats represent the party that ignores facts (Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton), statistics (police shootings vs BLM), and science (climate change, abortion). Democrats ignore facts, statistics, science and history....except when a narrow perspective is supported by one of these to push their agenda. Democrats claim to believe in science but only when it suits them. The fact that Democrats support abortion ignores the fundamental issue: Democrats support underage sex and sex out of wedlock without personal responsibility and accountability for one’s choices or actions, in addition to their support for murder of an unborn life. Democrats are the party of hypocrisy. They resort to name calling because their logic is fundamentally flawed and without rational basis. Democrats and their cohorts in the media actively shield the criminals amongst them and have created a double-standard of justice. See H Clinton, B Clinton, Clinton Foundation, H Weinstein, B Obama, J Biden, J Brennan, J Clapper, J Epstein, etc. More recently, Democrats want to defund the police, have encouraged rioting and looting, all while actively seeking to disarm the citizenry and restrict gun ownership in the face of their rising violence. Democrats use their office and position to target political enemies. See K. Harris, L. James, A. Schiff, M. Waters, E. Green, J. Nadler, F. Wilson, L. Cheney, L. Murkowski. Democrats two phony impeachment trials on the American people based on false information and lies, and two of the most polarized partisan votes ever. Democrats supported them and Republicans did not. They both failed because they had no merit whatsoever. There is no program, initiative or project that has been proposed, implemented or managed by Democrats that has been good for the country over the long-term. The new cancel culture pushed by liberal Democrats seeks to remove historical symbols and figures of racism. The most significant symbol to cancel would be the Democrat party which has always been the primary initiator and supporter of racist policies and practices in both deed and action. Yet, this will not happen because this party is necessary to further promote the agenda of evil, death and destruction. The Democrat Party is the real and primary racist organization in America and its members are the greatest threat this nation has ever faced, internal or external, since its founding.

LBJ was also q complete racist.

@@RedCloudServices Only about ten total have switched in the last 100 years, it is a myth that Dinesh D'Souza busted.

Awesome book!!!

The irony is that Theodore Roosevelt probably wouldn’t have done what he did if it weren’t for men like Bryan. He was essentially the American counterpart to Britain’s Benjamin Disraeli and Germany’s Otto von Bismarck. His “Progressive Conservatism” as he called it being very much akin to their “One Nation Conservatism”. Disraeli and Bismarck implemented moderate reform programs to cut the legs out from the emerging socialist movements in their countries who they worried would throw things out of balance. The populists were seen as posing the same kind of threat in the United States. TR himself was worried about the coming of a destructive revolution. Regardless of what anybody makes of switches in their constituencies the Republican Party, as well as their precursors among the Federalists and Whigs, have historically been the business friendly party that promoted individual striving while the Democrats, and their predecessors among the Anti-Federalists and Democratic Republicans, historically have claimed to be the party that spoke for the common and pit then against economic elites. The reason I bring this up is that there is a tendency to skip from Lincoln to TR and ignore the fact that the Gilded Age emerged under the watch of the Republicans who held largely uninterrupted control of the federal government following the Civil War for many years. It was men like William Jennings Bryan and Tom Watson who emerged out of the Democratic Party that started the populist movement in opposition to it. Leading into the main point that TR’s moderate reform approach wasn’t as radical as what the populists were proposing, but did enough to keep them from managing to take over. His usual answer being to hold businesses to standards more than taking control of them or breaking them up. For instance, Bryan thought that all trusts should be broken up while Teddy made a distinction between “good trusts” and “bad trusts” and tried to target malfeasant behavior as he saw that as the greater problem than economic disparity. Ironically, his in some ways more conservative successor William Howard Taft busted more trusts in one term than TR did in both of his and that was one of the many reasons for falling. Another example highlighting the difference is that Bryan thought that the railroads out to be nationalized while Teddy settled for regulation. He wound up going a bit further when running for a third time when he wasn’t just up against the Democratic Progressive Woodrow Wilson but a full-on Socialist in the form of Eugene V. Debs. I find the interplay at work there interesting and thought it would be some good food for thought. Haha

@The Life Analyst / you clearly do not know history. Republicans supported ALL civil rights acts more than Democrats (yes there were more than one civil rights act). Republicans even supported the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (probably the only one you are aware of) more than Democrats. Over 80% of the Republican Congress supported it while only 60% of the Democrat congress supported it. The Democrats even filibustered the 1964 act trying to stop it. Here are all civil rights acts and amendments throughout US history so you can do your own research... Amendments: 13th, 14th, 15th, 19th, 24th Civil Rights Acts: 1866,1871,1875,1957,1960,1964,1965,1968,1991 Also the racist in the 1964 election was Democrat LBJ, not Goldwater. LBJ was an avid racist his entire life and only signed the 1964 act for political reasons - this is all well documented, including his statement about the act “I’ll have those N______s voting Democrat for the next 200 years”. *Goldwater Supported the 24th Amendment abolishing poll taxes, LBJ was against it. *Goldwater founded the NAACP in Phoenix with his own money. *Goldwater desegregated schools, LBJ fought to keep segregation. *Goldwater pushed and voted for the 1964 act in senate, he only opposed an addition by the house which made it unconstitutional in his mind. Please research before posting in the future to prevent more embarrassment.

@The Life Analyst / I like how you Democrats cannot avoid the truth so you try to separate the Democrats by north south😂😂😂😂! Hilarious. I already spoon fed you the real facts about Goldwater & LBJ, did you ignore those facts because they were inconvenient? Goldwater was the Civil Rights candidate & LBJ was the racist. Proven history! Undisputed! If the 1964 act was not passed, it would have been pushed by Goldwater AGAIN (remember he pushed and voted for it in the senate) and then passed with even better reforms. LBJ was the racist! You’re ignorance is showing!

Facts

@@kerrim2715 if you look at the state legislatures like for example in GA they remained Democrat until 2011

the real republicans, lincoln republicans were red socialist wrote 61 times to karl marx

@George Randall The talking point about Lincoln and Marx being friends is a pervasive myth that simply isn’t true when you actually look into it. It’s often asserted that the two were pen pals but the extent of the interaction, if you can even call it that, between them is as follows: -A collection of social activists in Europe that included Marx sent Lincoln a letter to congratulate him on his re-election and show their support for him in the war. Marx drafted it under a different name and his own is lower on the list of signers. -A response was sent back written not by Lincoln but by a member of his administration Charles Adams, thanking them for their show of support and that the president hoped he would prove himself worthy of their confidence. It wasn’t even sent to Marx himself. That's literally it. It can’t even be proven that Lincoln read that particular letter anymore than he did the other thousands of then he was sent. Not to mention how despite attempts to attach themselves to Lincoln publicly in their private correspondences Marx and Friedrich Engels were actually quite critical of him and hardly considered him a fellow traveler ideologically. Here’s an example from a letter Marx sent to Engels dated September 10, 1862: “The way in which the North is waging the war is none other than might be expected of a bourgeois republic, where humbug has reigned supreme for so long. The South, an oligarchy, is better suited to the purpose, especially an oligarchy where all productive labour devolves on the n-s and where the 4 million ‘white trash’ are flibustiers by calling. For all that, I’m prepared to bet my life on it that these fellows will come off worst, ‘Stonewall Jackson’ notwithstanding. It is, of course, possible that some sort of revolution will occur beforehand in the North itself.“ Later in another letter dated September 7, 1864 Marx would write: “Lincoln has at his disposal considerable means for achieving election. (Needless to say, the peace proposals made by him are mere humbug.) The election of an opposition candidate would probably lead to a genuine revolution. Nevertheless, there is no mistaking the fact that during the next 8 weeks, in the course of which the matter will be decided pro tem, much will depend on military eventualities. This is undoubtedly the most critical moment since the beginning of the war. Once this has been shifted, Old Lincoln can blunder on to his heart’s content.” Ironically, Marx and Engels were both excited by the ascent of Andrew Johnson to the presidency after Lincoln’s assassination. Marx would say in a letter dated May 1, 1865: “Johnson is stern, inflexible, revengeful and as a former poor White has a deadly hatred of the oligarchy.” Later in the same letter he’d say: “He will make less fuss about these fellows, and, because of the treachery, he will find the temper of the North commensurate with his intentions.” For his part, Engels would write in a response dated May 3, 1865: “Johnson will insist on confiscation of the great estates, which will make the pacification and reorganisation of the South rather more acute. Lincoln would scarcely have insisted on it.” As you can see, neither Marx nor Engels really saw Lincoln as a fellow traveler. At least not in the long run. At the end of the day both saw him as ultimately being a standard bourgeois politician at best. The idea that Lincoln was some kind of nascent crypto-socialist is tenuous and an example of historical revisionism. All of what Lincoln actually said about economic policy and class warfare is incompatible with socialism. Including these gems: “The prudent, penniless beginner in the world labors for wages awhile, saves a surplus with which to buy tools or land for himself, then labors on his own account another while, and at length hires another new beginner to help him. This, say its advocates, is free labor-the just, and generous, and prosperous system, which opens the way for all, gives hope to all, and energy, progress, and improvement of condition to all.” -From Lincoln’s address to the Wisconsin State Agricultural Society delivered September 30, 1859 “It is best for all to leave each man to acquire property as fast as he can. Some will get wealthy. I don’t believe in a law to prevent a man from getting rich; it would do more harm than good. So while we do not propose any war on capital, we do wish to allow the humblest man an equal chance to get rich with everybody else.” -From Lincoln’s speech in New Haven, Connecticut delivered March 6, 1860 “Property is the fruit of labor; property is desirable; is a positive good in the world. That some should be rich shows that others may become rich, and hence is just encouragement to industry and enterprise. Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another, but let him work diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring that his own shall be safe from violence when built." -From Lincoln’s response to the New York Democratic Republican Workingman’s Association dated March 21, 1864 That’s not just him extolling individual striving and private property but supporting the profit motive and wealth creation. All while decrying the idea of class warfare. He also made it clear throughout his career that he saw himself as a conservative rather than a radical. He consistently revered the Founding Fathers rather than seeing them as archaic at best or evil at worst like most Leftists today are prone to doing and constantly referred to their example in his arguments. Perhaps the clearest case he made for the label was in his now too often be Cooper Union Address, where he even goes so far as to challenge Southern Democrats in their claim to it, delivered February 27, 1860: “But you say you are conservative-eminently conservative-while we are revolutionary, destructive, or something of the sort. What is conservatism? Is it not adherence to the old and tried, against the new and untried? We stick to, contend for, the identical old policy on the point in controversy which was adopted by "our fathers who framed the Government under which we live"; while you with one accord reject, and scout, and spit upon that old policy, and insist upon substituting something new. True, you disagree among yourselves as to what that substitute shall be. You are divided into new propositions and plans, but you are unanimous in rejecting and denouncing the old policy of the fathers. Some of you are for reviving the foreign slave trade; some for a Congressional Slave-Code for the Territories; some for Congress forbidding the Territories to prohibit Slavery within their limits; some for maintaining Slavery in the Territories through the judiciary; some for the "gur-reat pur-rinciple" that "if one man would enslave another, no third man should object", fantastically called "Popular Sovereignty"; but never a man among you is in favor of federal prohibition of slavery in federal territories, according to the practice of "our fathers who framed the Government under which we live". Not one of all your various plans can show a precedent or an advocate in the century within which our Government originated. Consider, then, whether your claim of conservatism for yourselves and your charge of destructiveness against us, are based on the clearest and stable foundations.“ It should be noted that economic interventionism or higher taxes in of themselves aren’t left-wing. The Republicans like their predecessors among the Federalists and the Whigs held the standard views conservative parties held on economics. Trying to argue otherwise would lead to one having to say then that Benjamin Disraeli’s Tories were to the left of William Gladstone’s Liberal Party back in the 19th Century. Liberal economics was left-wing when it was up against old school mercantilism. The American School of economic these parties in question was an intermediary between each other with critically applied mercantilist policy in a mostly free market in order to develop and protect the national economy rather than impose a vision of social justice. That’s why business owners large and small were already throwing their support behind them while very many of those who were anti-big business fought against such policy as they didn’t want what they saw as the oppressive presence of corporations to invade their untouched communities. Again, I just don’t see how one can genuinely argue that Lincoln was anything close to an anti-capitalist, let alone something along the lines of a Marxist.

@Funny Girl It was the opposite in fact. Various news outlets applied colors inconsistently and arbitrarily but political operatives in Washington represented Republicans with Blue and Democrats with Red throughout the 20th Century, a time where they were already understood to mean Right and Left respectively, until after the wildly protracted Bush vs Gore election cycle which cemented the current colors in the public consciousness.

The 19th Amendment granting the right to vote for women was opposed by Democrats four times and only passed when Republicans finally gained a majority in Congress. Called the ‘Susan B Anthony Amendment’, its namesake was arrested for voting. Her voting choices: all Republicans running for office. During each election cycle, Democrats have to raise more money and spend more because it takes a lot to overcome common sense, over-ride principles, supersede moral values, and to push false narratives. Democrats have denigrated the role of religion in society. Democrats break the 10 Commandments: they are the first to shout “racist” as a way of shutting down opposition (by bearing false witness against their neighbors). Democrats slander and produce false witnesses against persons of opposing political views (see Clarence Thomas and Brett Kavanaugh nominations, and media coverage of Trump’s first term). Democrats stopped “The Pledge of Allegiance” from being recited in schools. Republican President Dwight Eisenhower introduced the Civil Rights Bill in 1957; not a single Republican Senator opposed it; 18 Democrats (including Lyndon Johnson) opposed it via filibuster. The first Black members of Congress were all Republican. All 23 of them. Col. Lynch - for whom the term “lynching” was derived - had a “vigilance” party in Virginia that supported law and order, and that captured and tried criminals. Once Democrats founded the Ku Klux Klan, they adopted the “vigilance” concept and turned it to their own nefarious purpose of targeting Blacks, thus giving rise to “vigilantism” and the “lynching” of Blacks to instill fear and control, and suppress them. Knowing that the more one learns of our history, the more one loves our country, Democrats have removed US History, Political Studies, Civics from graduation criteria in schools, universities and colleges. Democrats are co-joined and co-opted by organizations with US membership that seek to infiltrate and destroy the US (Antifa, BLM, Soros, Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR, etc). These groups promote cultural Marxism and anarchy while claiming to be Americans. Democrats are always the first to resort to violence to achieve their goals. The Southern Poverty Law Center published a survey in June 2022 that found nearly half of young Democratic males approve “of assassinating a politician who is harming our country or democracy”. The recent most high profile public figures caught perpetrating crimes or facing accusers for their evil acts are Democrats: Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Epstein, Bernie Madoff, Gilhaine Maxwell, Kevin Spacey, Hunter Biden, James Franco. These persons are supported by fellow Democrats (Clintons, Obamas, Hollywood stars) until their evil becomes excessive and irrefutable. Only then are they abandoned. Democrats are the only party that holds up racial dividers as truth sayers and sages (J. Jackson, A. Sharpton, S. Abrams, A. Rye). Democrats are the only party to riot, loot, destroy, pillage when they lose fair elections. (See public agitation encouraged by M. Waters and others) Democrats cheat, break the rules or change the rules to win elections (look up voting fraud cases). Why do you think Democrats oppose voter ID? Democrats constantly belittle and undermine Christianity while embracing Islam, as though they don’t understand or don’t care that Islam detests democratic principles, subjugates women, and calls for death to homosexuals. Democrats have moved further left since JFK, the last Democrat President who was a lifetime member of the NRA, sought to lower taxes, and wanted to cut government hand-outs. Democrats comprise 75% of mass shooters. Criminals who either have assassinated or attempted to assassinate police officers sitting in their vehicles have all been Democrats. Democrats are the only party to embrace socialism as though they cannot or do not learn from history, and ignore that millions of people have died as a result of socialism. Democrats comprise the party which fails to collectively comprehend that capitalism raises the living standards for all. Democrats represent the party that ignores facts (Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton), statistics (police shootings vs BLM), and science (climate change, abortion). Democrats ignore facts, statistics, science and history....except when a narrow perspective is supported by one of these to push their agenda. Democrats claim to believe in science but only when it suits them. The fact that Democrats support abortion ignores the fundamental issue: Democrats support underage sex and sex out of wedlock without personal responsibility and accountability for one’s choices or actions, in addition to their support for murder of an unborn life. Democrats are the party of hypocrisy. They resort to name calling because their logic is fundamentally flawed and without rational basis. Democrats and their cohorts in the media actively shield the criminals amongst them and have created a double-standard of justice. See H Clinton, B Clinton, Clinton Foundation, H Weinstein, B Obama, J Biden, J Brennan, J Clapper, J Epstein, etc. More recently, Democrats want to defund the police, have encouraged rioting and looting, all while actively seeking to disarm the citizenry and restrict gun ownership in the face of their rising violence. Democrats use their office and position to target political enemies. See K. Harris, L. James, A. Schiff, M. Waters, E. Green, J. Nadler, F. Wilson, L. Cheney, L. Murkowski. Democrats two phony impeachment trials on the American people based on false information and lies, and two of the most polarized partisan votes ever. Democrats supported them and Republicans did not. They both failed because they had no merit whatsoever. There is no program, initiative or project that has been proposed, implemented or managed by Democrats that has been good for the country over the long-term. The new cancel culture pushed by liberal Democrats seeks to remove historical symbols and figures of racism. The most significant symbol to cancel would be the Democrat party which has always been the primary initiator and supporter of racist policies and practices in both deed and action. Yet, this will not happen because this party is necessary to further promote the agenda of evil, death and destruction. The Democrat Party is the real and primary racist organization in America and its members are the greatest threat this nation has ever faced, internal or external, since its founding.

Today's Republicans are the opposite of that.

yes because its not nessesary now. the issue with race is so incredibly small. its not a big issue its a small issue thats why. the meadias just make it sound bigger than it is.

That was before the party realignment

Theodore Roosevelt was a “Progressive Conservative” responding to the social unrest that created the populist movement represented by men like William Jennings Bryan, that largely came out of the Democrats, in retaliation to the Gilded Age, that occurred under the watch of the Republicans, with moderate reform to maintain societal stability and keep the radicals from taking power and throwing things out of balance. The best comparison to make would be to the “One Nation Conservatives” of Europe like Britain’s Benjamin Disraeli and Germany’s Otto von Bismarck who did similarly to cut the legs out from the rising socialist movements in their countries. Despite some of the baggage he comes with now, his partisan rival Woodrow Wilson was an unabashed left-wing Progressive who did lay the foundation for the modern Democratic Party in several ways. And ultimately, Franklin Roosevelt would more closely follow in his footsteps than his distant cousin’s. Theodore Roosevelt Jr. even campaigned against him on behalf of the Republicans.

I honestly wouldn't have even noticed it if you hadn't mentioned it. This just sounds like normal speech.

It is normal contemporary casual speech, with all the current fads and tics. IMHO study materials ... and really any material that wants to be taken seriously ... should use speech that won't be outdated in 10 years. It's possible to be casual and not grating. Some of these habits, such as the initial So, can get very old fast.

That's a really rare and interesting criticism, never thought about this at all! Now I would love to browse examples of contemporary casual speech from 10 years ago that sounds outdated today. Do you have any links you could share on that topic?

Strange. Seems common and not interesting enough to me to bolster an obvious point. How about you play this video again in 10 years instead.

I'm glad that I am not the only one who finds speech mannerisms like these to be incredibly frustrating and/or distracting.

Andrew Jackson was awesome!

M Taylor Andrew Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act, which forced Indians to give up their land. Just so you know Andrew Jackson is one of the worst presidents ever.

He's one of the last to tell world bankers to shove it. For that I love him. Don't know about why he's sign the act i'll have to research that more.

Read Manifest Destiny, excellent book about Jackson. His distrust of native americans and hatred comes from the earlier frontier Indian wars. Only Jackson and Teddy Roosevelt defeated the Central bank enslavement. Wilson, father of the progressive liberal democrat sold out the people.Read Jekle island and the creation of the FED.

Yeqahbut by the end of his presidency, we went into an economic crisis.

The KKK? Found in December of the same year the Civil War ended, which is 1865. All founders were vets of the Confederacy and of the 8 or 9 founders all Democrat (there is 1 Republican with them, he’s the first Rhino).

Shes an idiot

Why?

He thinks that this should happen, because Khan burst his little bubble.

Khan is not teaching, rather they are whitewashing history with a leftist bent. History is not something they are capable of doing in an objective fashion, given their funding sources such as Bill Gates.

Jesse Schexnayder was trying to be cool about it, but pretty much what u said. unless ur gonna approach it objectively and show both points of view stay away from it.

+Jesse Schexnayder You are quite clearly a brainwashed conservative. There is no "leftist bent" in this video.

Very true. The Democrat party is the party of real discrimination, racism, destruction, death, and evil. Note historical facts below: Democrat judges (7) sought to deny blacks the right of US citizenship and thus constitutional protections following the civil war. The two dissenting justices were Republican. See Dredd Scott decision. Democrats created the Ku Klux Klan to control and intimidate blacks. Democrats started lynching Blacks. Democrats started the civil war to retain their slaves and slavery as an institution. Democrat legislators denied blacks the right to vote, but wanted their slaves counted for greater legislative representation, to continue and ensure slavery in perpetuity. Democrats denied blacks the right to own guns (so KKK intimidation would be more effective). Footnote: White Republican militias were formed to oppose and fight the KKK to protect blacks. Democrats lawmakers crafted “Jim Crow” laws to separate blacks from whites, and to limit black businesses and black prosperity. Democrat Bull Connor, Alabama Commissioner of Safety, unleashed police dogs and fire hoses against “uppity” blacks during actually peaceful protests (unlike BLM ‘peaceful’ protests that burn down businesses and result in looting). Bull Connor was on the DNC. Democrats implemented the welfare state and government dependence which lead to the destruction of the family unit (think ‘baby mommas’ and the dramatic rise of the single parent family, especially amongst blacks). Democrats resisted the Equal Rights Act and Equal Rights Amendment. Democrats support Planned Parenthood founded by Margaret Sanger who described blacks as “human weeds”, which is why they are prevalent in black communities. The Republican Party was founded specifically to end slavery in the U.S. At the time of the civil war, no Republicans owned slaves. All slave owners were Democrats. The most violent, economically depressed, and worst run cities in the nation are run by Democrats; their cities have the highest crime rates and the lowest educational standards. Democrats lie about this country and claim we are a democracy only to push their illicit party; we are and always have been a Constitutional Republic (does this help narrow down the only true American political party?). The word ‘democracy’ does not appear in the US Constitution, the Bill of Rights, or the Declaration of Independence at all. The founding fathers warned of the dangers of ‘democracy’ in their personal letters (pls figure out why; it’s very simple). The Democrat party abandoned the Republic long ago (look up their original name) to push their fallacy. Following his victory in the civil war against pro-slave Democrats, Republican President Lincoln freed all slaves. He was thus subsequently assassinated by a Democrat (note that even long ago, Democrats began resorting to violence). Lincoln was succeeded by his VP, a Democrat who opposed the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments (abolishing slavery, giving blacks citizenship, giving blacks voting rights). These Amendments passed only because of universal support by Republicans. The 19th Amendment granting the right to vote for women was opposed by Democrats four times and only passed when Republicans finally gained a majority in Congress.

Even today. Such dedication. It's in their blood.

Just look up bidens histotry on segregation, he is a racist

That is true and without a doubt. Even Kamala thinks so.

Personally a waste of time .

Don't call out this video on "selective bias" when your clearly biased comment is nearly intelligible due to your terrible grasp of the English language. Typical Fox News indoctrinated conservative.

Virginia at times didn’t allow emancipation and when they did the owner had to pony up money because the state said that blacks couldn’t fend for themselves, just like democrats say today.

Any chance that your narrative could add more honest details of American society,commerce, banking, religion and educational opportunity during these years of slave holders?

How about no party! Or independent at best

@@nicolebrit33 Exactly

By the standards of his time Jefferson was on the Left. The easy demarcating point for which Founders were more radical and which more conservative among them was who defended the French Revolution for a good while and who condemned it quickly.

You're looking at it wrong. There was no left/ right wing division back then. Those terms weren't even conceived until a decade later during the French revolution ( Technically, the right would have been the loyalist to King George). I'm not sure what you mean by "Jefferson was not a democrat"? He literally founded the party.... You too caught up on ignorant cliches. Also Jefferson has a lot of ideas that would be considered leftist today. Such as starting the first totally free collage,! Socialism by modern conservatives.

The Klan was founded and was a militant wing of the Democratic Party...So, clearly you have been lied to about who is responsible for what. Which is typical of those educated by ignorant communist professors who are pushing the lie of the GOP being tied to the KKK when in reality it was the Democrats who had the founding platform of defending their right to owning human beings. It is documented and leftist "historians" try to rewrite history to make their far left Democratic Party as being the "good guys" when all they are are pseudo-communists.

Actually our founding fathers where basically all Republican as our founding fathers express their great hatred for democracy they hated democracy with a passion which can be found within their writings and they even warned us to never embrace democracy unless we want to destroy ourselves and Democrats supports democracy something our founding fathers hated.

@@Eidelmania Yeah, Jefferson’s ideas seem to be misunderstood more often than not. He did not support agrarianism because it was a traditional way of life but he saw it instead as a way for the common man to attain material independency and with that real freedom and equality. Neither did he promote states’ rights out of a desire to curtail mob rule but rather due to the judgment that it was the level of government most responsive to the will of the people. As the country industrialized and federal government democratized, his political heirs recalibrated their approach. Jefferson was indeed a left-winger by the standards of his own time. What we would now call a political Right and Left was starting to form during the Washington Administration and sharped in response to the French Revolution which is where those terms come from in the first place.

that is what lincoln brought in he destroyed our constitutional republic, we are regulated to death and taxed to death. and involved in other countries affairs

I think that they meant he was the first since the Civil War which was a big deal.

"...leave out some information" it's 16 minutes that's explaining 113, 529, 600 minutes of history..... sure. They "left out some information."

yes, but why leave out the MOST RELEVANT information?

Ray Castillo Yes I couldn't agree more! Khan made a video for Republicans too. I am bipartisan I watched theirs first even though I go blue!!

How is being a (Modern) Democratic an insult

​@@danielvrbecause Thomas Jefferson and the rest of our founding fathers hated Democrats that they even wrote down how much they hated the Democratic party.

Nah, it's appropriate to bring up the past in a history lesson.

Who said: We'll have those N**gers voting for us for us for 200 years, while sitting on Air Force One chatting with 5 Democrat Governors ?

Jonny give it a rest son, you're not making a good case for yourself. LOL

@The Life Analyst African Americans started voting Democrat up to 80% on average starting in the New Deal Era, not after the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Southern whites started shifting some during the 1950’s under Eisenhower, even after he federalized the National Guard in order to enforce “Brown v Board of Education” in Little Rock, when industrialization started to sweep across the South and wasn’t fully solidified until 30 years after the Civil Rights Act in question occurred in the mid-1990’s. (A time when you still had things like the Democratic Clintons calling young black men “Super Predators” I might add). That’s not to say that there weren’t shady actors in the Republican Party attempting to use dirty tactics for votes but it’s another question as to whether or not it meant they actually wanted to employ racist policy on top of that rather than just being a cynical ploy which the Nixon Administration’s record on school integration and affirmative action should raise some questions about and a third to ask whether it was the chief motivator for the South turning Republican regardless. I think that looking at the timeline and applying Occam’s Razor it seems to be hard for me to not come to the conclusion that as industry began to flourish in the South they care to embrace the party that historically had been more business friendly. Though of course as the Democrats had to do prior, on the national stage that led to having to toe the line with the South on how they approach some issues that isn’t as much of a problem on the state level.

@The Life Analyst I’ll concede that I misremembered the exact number but my main point about it being a clear unambiguous majority of African American voters still stands all the same. Also, I never said Eisenhower won the whole of the South. What I did claim is that starting to see a markedly larger number of Southerners become willing to vote for a Republican in the South in comparison to previous years which steadily increased over time as the years went on. Ergo, it was a transition under way before the 1964 Civil Rights Act or Southern Strategy that needs something else to help fully explain its beginnings in the first place that some sketchy Republicans later picked up on and wanted to expedite in the face of having lost other demographics to the Democrats which from the best of what we can tell wasn’t terribly effective the years implemented. I’m not defending the entirety of the entire Republican establishment throughout time so much as I am trying to assert why I believe voting blocks ultimately went he way they did. The greater apparent correlation on the economic side of things feels hard to ignore and more plausible.

@@johnweber4577 it's funny though if you go and look at the southern states legislatures through the years..they remained solidly democrat..like the state of Georgia didn't have a republican legislature all the way till 2011..

How so??

Ok “historian”

@chris L The Jeffersonian Republicans were the institutional precursors to the Democrats at the very least. I don’t know how you could draw a line between Washington and the Federalists to the Democratic Party. Here is the break down of how the parties evolved over the years to the best that I understand it: During the First Party System you had parties known as the Federalists and the Republicans. Though the Republicans were themselves split between the left-wing Jeffersonians and the Southern conservatives that came to be known as the “Tertium Quids” in contrast to the Federalists who represented northern conservatism. The Federalists would become disgraced beyond repair to the general public after the Hartford Convention during the War of 1812 and would eventually fade away. Leading to the original Republicans becoming the only Party with real power during th “Era of Good Feeling”. Three major factions would emerge within the Republicans. You had the “Democratic Republicans” made up of the Jacksonians who were essentially a reformation within the Jeffersonians, the “National Republicans” that essentially succeeded the Federalists and the “Old Republicans” who were the heirs to the Tertium Quids. The original Republican Party would break apart for multiple reasons. The Democratic Republicans would go on to form the Democratic Party while the National and Old Republicans would become dominant factions within the wide tented Whig Party as the “Conscience Whigs” and “Cotton Whigs” respectively. Awhile after Jackson’s death the Whig Party would break o We their irreconcilable views on the issue of slavery. Leading to the Conscience Whigs forming the foundation of the modern Republican Party and the Cotton Whigs moving to merge with the Democrats. Though they would run into problems quickly as the former Cotton Whigs were dissatisfied with their 1860 election nominee Stephen Douglas and they wound up leaving again to form the “Southern Democratic Party” and put in their own candidate. An exercise that would repeat itself during the election cycle of 1948 when their successors walked out in Harry S. Truman to form the “States’ Rights Democratic Party” and again put up their own candidate but lumbered back in after losing. If anybody switched it was the geographical constituencies tied to that faction which was already leaving periodically rather than the all than the people in the broader party machine. In terms of ideological lineage the Federalists became the modern Republicans and the Jeffersonian Republicans became the Democrats. Ultimately the underlying dynamic that’s never changed is that the Republican tradition has historically been the business friendly party that promotes individual striving while the Democratic lineage historically has tended to be the party claiming to speak for the common man and pit them against economic elites. Examples highlighting that including Alexander Hamilton versus Thomas Jefferson on the issue of the Revolutionary War debt speculators, Henry Clay versus Andrew Jackson on the issue of the National Bank, and William McKinley versus William Jennings Bryan on the issue of free silver. The manifestation of their political instincts in public policy has evolved over time due to changing conditions in the world they inhabited which interned led to shifts in their voting blocks who were looking out for their own independent interests.
