August 4, 2014:

Richard Nixon is not having an easy time of late. The Washington Post alone has run at least three opinion pieces reminding us all that Nixon was a skunk who 40 years ago this month resigned the presidency and flew off to a short-lived exile in California. There the story of Nixon’s nefariousness supposedly ends. But it does not. He remains to this day a major political figure.

It was Nixon who devised and pursued what came to be called the Southern strategy. This was, in the admirably concise wording of Wikipedia, an appeal “to racism against African-Americans.” Nixon was hardly the first ********** to notice that Lyndon Johnson’s civil rights legislation had alienated whites both in the South and elsewhere — Johnson himself had forecast that Southern whites would desert the ********ic Party.

But Nixon was the GOP’s leader and, in January 1969, the President of the United States. The White House, it seemed, would not do a damned thing for African-Americans.

Nixon was a complex figure — virtually a screaming ******* compared with today’s Tea Party types. He was above all a pragmatic, cynical politician. Johnson and the ********s had wooed the black vote; Nixon would do the same for the white vote.

Even-steven, you might say, except the ********s were expanding rights while the **********s wanted to narrow them or keep them restrictive.

This realignment did not exactly start with Nixon or end with him. Barry Goldwater had voted against the 1964 Civil Rights Act (although he had supported other civil rights bills), but the GOP in general then was unencumbered by a Southern constituency and its leadership often favored civil rights.

After Nixon, though, there was no turning back. In 1980, Ronald Reagan — ever the innocent — went to Mississippi and the Neshoba County Fair to tastelessly proclaim his belief in “states’ rights.” Nearby, three civil rights worked had been killed just 16 years earlier, protesting one of those bogus rights — the right to segregate the races. Reagan never acknowledged any appeal to racism. Racists took it as a wink anyway.

At one time, a good many African-Americans voted ********** — the party of Lincoln, after all. Jackie Robinson initially supported Nixon , as did Joe Louis. The former heavyweight champion had even supported a ********** in the 1946 congressional campaign against Rep. Helen Gahagan Douglas, a ******* civil rights advocate, whose California district was substantially black. As late as the 1970s, there were African-American enclaves in Maryland that voted **********.

The damage Nixon did to his own party, not to mention the rights of African-Americans and the cause of racial comity, has lasted long after the stench of Watergate has dispersed. It not only persuaded blacks that the ********** Party was inhospitable to them, but it in effect welcomed racists to the GOP fold.

Google "Southern Strategy." Educate yourself! The racist southern segregationists abandoned the ********ic Party and joined the modern day ********** Party a LONG time ago! There's a reason why the "Alt-right" associate with the ********** Party!
