In American politics, the Southern strategy was a Republican Party electoral strategy to increase political support among white voters in the South by appealing to racism against African Americans. As the civil rights movement and dismantling of Jim Crow laws in the 1950s and 1960s visibly deepened existing racial tensions in much of the Southern United States, Republican politicians such as presidential candidate Richard Nixon and Senator Barry Goldwater developed strategies that successfully contributed to the political realignment of many white, conservative voters in the South that had traditionally supported the Democratic Party to the Republican Party. It also helped push the Republican Party much more to the right.

(Snip)

The perception that the Republican Party had served as the "vehicle of white supremacy in the South", particularly during the Goldwater campaign and the presidential elections of 1968 and 1972, made it difficult for the Republican Party to win the support of black voters in the South in later years. In 2005, Republican National Committee chairman Ken Mehlman formally apologized to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), a national civil rights organization, for exploiting racial polarization to win elections and ignoring the black vote.

Although the phrase "Southern strategy" is often attributed to Nixon's political strategist Kevin Phillips, he did not originate it but popularized it. In an interview included in a 1970 New York Times article, Phillips stated his analysis based on studies of ethnic voting:

From now on, the Republicans are never going to get more than 10 to 20 percent of the Negro vote and they don't need any more than that... but Republicans would be shortsighted if they weakened enforcement of the Voting Rights Act. The more Negroes who register as Democrats in the South, the sooner the Negrophobe whites will quit the Democrats and become Republicans. That's where the votes are. Without that prodding from the blacks, the whites will backslide into their old comfortable arrangement with the local Democrats.

I am telling you it is all bullshit, people today as they did back then vote with their wallets, the democrats left the working class behind then as they are doing today. Nixon's team can say and do whatever they want, they can make themselves more important in their own minds than they are in reality, people vote for their own self interests and principles, more often than not for economic reasons.... There was no great exodus from the democrat party based upon Johnson's civil rights act.

Where is your evidence of anything you have ever claimed?


Democratic desperation is more evident with each post from the minority party.

It is amazing how you distort reality... no wonder you’re A trump supporter. I supported the 3rd group who came to peacefully protest. I do not support ANTIFA which every educated, rational person knows are anarcists who violently disrupt demonstrations across the world, most notably at G7 conferences. Do you even know why they are called ANTIFA?

Believe whatever you wish, I can’t be bothered with irrational, lying trump supporters.

So why did the Nixon lose the south?

Why did Carter carry the south?

Why did Klinton carry the south?

Why did only two of the twenty one southern senators flip?

Why did the south not flip until well after Nixon was dead?

All you are doing is linking to prove that the myth exists, that doesn’t make the myth true.

Tell us again how the American Nazi Party is a left wing liberal organization - since they are having another “Unite the RIGHT” march in DC on August 11th. You remember them, they were some of the “good people” who marched in Charlottesville in 4 months ago..

“Facts... they are such stubborn things”! 😂.

Tell me what you know about Jason Kessler?

Why won't you again remind us of why you insist the KKK and American Nazi Parties are left wing, liberal organizations? When you were told the American Nazi Party was organizing another of their "Unite the RIGHT" demonstrations, you insisted they named it wrong....

bro... pathetic. Your defense? Anyone who disagrees with you is automatically a liar. lol

Now here’s the real truth behind all this:

”"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."
-Lyndon Baines Johnson-

”These Negroes, they’re getting pretty uppity these days and that’s a problem for us since they’ve got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we’ve got to do something about this, we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. For if we don’t move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there’ll be no way of stopping them, we’ll lose the filibuster and there’ll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It’ll be Reconstruction all over again.”
-Lyndon Baines Johnson-

”I'll have those N’s voting Democratic for 200 years."
-Lyndon Baines Johnson-

The actual strategy was from the D party to hide their racist past and take away the black vote, which had been a reliable R bloc, while blocking real social reform ... and at the same time dividing the country even further through racial politics.

That was the true southern strategy.

If you ever want to know what evil the democrat party is up to, just look at what they accuse the opposition of.

Sadly they do this because history has shown them that the dumb masses will believe whatever they are told to believe.

What makes you think you can make "assignments" to others to do your bidding? What a pretentious oaf; your exaggerated sense of self-importance is laughable!.

He’s claimed a lot of stuff, and generally, he’s correct.

You claim all sort of stuff, and you’re almost always wrong, compulsively wrong, compulsively seeking anti-knowledge or ignorance, compulsively establishing stupidity as a way of life, a life goal, sort of a mystic search for the wrong-headed, the mis-guided, the glory error and futility of thought.
