There is some truth to that.
Democrats voted unanimously against the 14th amendment and almost unanimously against the 15th.
The 19th amendment wasn't very fun for the Dems either. They filibustered and fought against giving women the right to vote.
I am having a hard time finding any civil rights laws that Democrats voted in higher number than Republicans for on the books.
Anyone find any?

That should be the case. But why do so many republicans hate and I mean reallllly hate Obama yet they support white guys with the same voting records and policy actions?
If you have the facilities to literally process that and are still a republican...

A large part of the GOP might be racist. Seriously America is not the land of white people. America is the land of immigrants and they come from all over the globe. The Republican party needs to enter the 21st century.

Thank the South for that. It wasn't party lines that defined those votes.

He's actually correct. I grew up in the South, I know first hand. Before Reagan (and Clinton) came along everyone in the South was a Democrat. They identified with Democrats mainly because of residual bitterness left over from the Civil War and Reconstruction. Southern Democrats were to the right of Northern Republicans on matters like civil rights, Jim Crow, etc. They were every bit as conservative as we consider modern Conservatives to be today. They're pretty much all Republicans now.

I think the point was more that the identities of the parties have flipflopped over the years. The Democrats used to be the party that got the votes of white people scared of black people. Now the republicans are the party that gets the vote from white people scared of black people.
