This is totally wrong. The "dixiecrats" changed parties when johnson signed the Civil Rights Acts. ronald the raygun had absolutely nothing to do with it.

The Southern Strategy, constructed by lee atwater and strom thurmond was implemented by tricky dick. Again, the raygun had zero to do with it.

Let's keep history factual.

This. I was going to correct him myself, and specifically mention LBJ, but sometimes I think I come off as a "school marm" by correcting posts too much.

Pretty much all Ronnie did was ride in on the work previous conservatives had done for him.

One minor correction though: the "Dixiecrats" started even earlier at the 1948 Democratic National Convention when Hubert Humphrey vocally supported a Civil Rights platform.

Actually no!

Historically, this was a portmanteau blending "Reagan" and "Democrats" (similar to terms like Dixiecrats). It was used to describe traditional, conservative Southern Democrats who crossed party lines to vote for or support Republican President Ronald Reagan in the 1980s.

The Southern Shift: For generations, the South was a stronghold for the Democratic Party (often called the "Solid South"). In the 1980s, millions of white working-class and conservative Southern voters shifted their allegiance to Reagan due to his platform of social conservatism, tax cuts, and strong national defense.

When I went to vote early in October as soon as I stepped to the table for my ballot the lady asked me for my license handed it right to her. She looked at it a few times looked up at me and said I guess that looks like you. I just took it as a joke. Asked my birth date address normal stuff everything checked out and then she said she couldn't find me in her system and was just staring at me. Shit I didn't care I just stared back at her old white ass and was thinking well what the hell were you just check against with all the questions? I still didn't say a word to her as she stared at me while she held my license in her hand. I started thinking what the hell are you just looking at me for are you waiting for me to come around the table and look myself up on your computer? Like I was supposed to run or some shit. She finally checked again and magically found me. Funny I had just vote back in march at that same spot in the exact same room.
