KKK Terrorist Arm of the Democratic Party
By Frances Rice (Z: and don’t miss the links below)
History shows that the Ku Klux Klan was the terrorist arm of the Democrat Party. This ugly fact about the Democrat Party is detailed in the book, A Short History of Reconstruction, (Harper & Row Publishers, Inc., 1990) by Dr. Eric Foner, the renown liberal historian who is the DeWitt Clinton Professor of History at Columbia University. As a further testament to his impeccable credentials, Professor Foner is only the second person to serve as president of the three major professional organizations: the Organization of American Historians, American Historical Association, and Society of American Historians.
Democrats in the last century did not hide their connections to the Ku Klux Klan. Georgia-born Democrat Nathan Bedford Forrest, a Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan wrote on page 21 of the September 1928 edition of the Klan’s “The Kourier Magazine”: “I have never voted for any man who was not a regular Democrat. My father … never voted for any man who was not a Democrat. My grandfather was …the head of the Ku Klux Klan in reconstruction days…. My great-grandfather was a life-long Democrat…. My great-great-grandfather was…one of the founders of the Democratic party.”
Dr. Foner in his book explores the history of the origins of Ku Klux Klan and provides a chilling account of the atrocities committed by Democrats against Republicans, black and white.
On page 146 of his book, Professor Foner wrote: “Founded in 1866 as a Tennessee social club, the Ku Klux Klan spread into nearly every Southern state, launching a ‘reign of terror‘ against Republican leaders black and white.” Page 184 of his book contains the definitive statements: “In effect, the Klan was a military force serving the interests of the Democratic party, the planter class, and all those who desired the restoration of white supremacy. It aimed to destroy the Republican party’s infrastructure, undermine the Reconstruction state, reestablish control of the black labor force, and restore racial subordination in every aspect of Southern life.”
Heartbreaking are Professor Foner’s recitations of the horrific acts of terror inflicted by Democrats on black and white Republicans. Recounted on pages 184-185 of his book is one such act of terror: “Jack Dupree, a victim of a particularly brutal murder in Monroe County, Mississippi – assailants cut his throat and disemboweled him, all within sight of his wife, who had just given birth to twins – was ‘president of a republican club‘ and known as a man who ‘would speak his mind.’”
“White gangs roamed New Orleans, intimidating blacks and breaking up Republican meetings,“ wrote Dr. Foner on page 146 of his book. On page 186, he wrote: “An even more extensive ‘reign of terror’ engulfed Jackson, a plantation county in Florida’s panhandle. ‘That is where Satan has his seat,‘ remarked a black clergyman; all told over 150 persons were killed, among them black leaders and Jewish merchant Samuel Fleischman, resented for his Republican views and for dealing fairly with black customers.“
It’s important we remember the truth….we allow history to get quite twisted, don’t we.
The article above is from The National Black Republican Association….sent to me by an old friend of this blog’s, Elmer’s Brother.
And LOOK AT THIS…..statistics that are difficult to hide…unless you’re a liberal American teacher, I guess?
And, did you know the Republican platform of 1856 called for the ABOLISHMENT OF SLAVERY? “….Republican fathers, when they had abolished Slavery in all our National Territory, ordained that no person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law, it becomes our duty to maintain this provision of the Constitution against all attempts to violate it for the purpose of establishing Slavery in the Territories of the United States by positive legislation, prohibiting its existence or extension therein. That we deny the authority of Congress, of a Territorial Legislation, of any individual, or association of individuals, to give legal existence to Slavery in any Territory of the United States, while the present Constitution shall be maintained.”
Why don’t our kids learn the truth? There are still deniers on this subject and when I thought about Obama and his Slavery comments, I got busy researching what I knew, and Elmer’s Bro. helped…..and this is the result.
If only the Republicans had been heeded…anybody want to weigh in on why Democrats didn’t want it? I think this could be a rousing discussion: START!!

Because learning the truth doesn’t aid the Democratic Party.
It still amazes me that adults today of all ages are ignorant of the truth presented in this blog post. In the Information Age!

We have to give credit where due, however. The Democrats have a great plan for brainwashing our children so that they too may one day become liberal morons. No other organization has done more to destroy black families than the DNC and progressive movement, and of course the coup d’etat is that most blacks today vote Democrat. It is an astounding development, is it not?

Now I’m not going to go into the unemployment, food stamps, joblessness, debt, corruption in Federal agencies and the like. We ought to face up to the fact that this country is irrevocably divided and hence broken.
And in order to achieve an America that we like, love or want to live in…we need to become two separate countries officially. The class issues, race issues and many, many other problems seem to be insurmountable. And now that we’re facing another year or more of utter bullshit from the 2016 contenders…we know or should know that nothing is going to change. Not one of the Republican challengers has the guts to tell it like it is and they’ll never do much about it if they some how get elected. Besides….class and gender issue will trump the truth once again…..it’s already been decided…Hillary is “owed” the crown. Case closed…done. What’s left of America will soon be a remnant of the past….illegal immigration, muslims, terrorism will turn us into a 3rd world country…we’re almost there.

University spokesman Rick Fitzgerald told The College Fix in an email the campaign aims to “address campus climate by helping individuals understand that their words can impact someone and to encourage individuals to commit to creating a positive campus community.”

Doug Schoen on Demrats…
Schoen said that President Obama should not seek reelection in 2012. He has stated that the President has divided the country along partisan lines, and said that the Affordable Care Act had been a “disaster” for the Democratic Party.
Schoen has been critical of the Occupy Wall Street protest movement. In a Wall Street Journal op-ed, he wrote, “President Obama and the Democratic leadership are making a critical error in embracing the Occupy Wall Street movement—and it may cost them the 2012 election.” He believes that the protesters represent “an unrepresentative segment of the electorate that believes in radical redistribution of wealth, civil disobedience and, in some instances, violence,” and that their common bond is “a deep commitment to left-wing policies.” Schoen believes that the Democratic Party should not appeal to voters who support taxing oil companies and the rich, but rather to voters in the middle who want lower taxes.
But of course…it’s the conservatives who are the terrorists. Schoen appears to be a dem that has a conscience and puts country above his politics? Rare indeed.

Z: Your information about Foner may be basically correct, but your information about General Nathan Bedford Forrest is incorrect. Forrest was born in Tennessee in 1821, and died in Memphis, Tennessee in 1877. He was a very famous Confederate officer during the Civil War, and was also considered a war criminal by many. Before the war, he was a slave trader (among other things), and it was a real surprise to everyone that he was a tactical genius on the battlefield, often defeating Union forces much larger than his.
After the war, he was one of the founders of the KKK, and some years later he resigned his offices in the KKK explaining that criminal elements had taken over. I read this account in the Memphis Commercial Appeal as a feature called, “100 years ago in the news”. Forrest died in Memphis in 1877 and is buried in what was known as Forest Park. The all black city council has renamed it something else, and that’s OK as far as I am concerned.
So, there is little doubt in my mind that Forrest was a Democrat, and it is a fact that he was a founder of the KKK. Who knows what his grandfather and great grandfathers were because there was no Democrat Party before Andrew Jackson who was also from Tennessee.,
You see, I was born and raised in Tennessee and every school child had to take Tennessee history.

AOW is right, of course. Learning the truth doesn’t aid the Democrats. Here’s something that does, though, The Emancipation Project. This links to a mural on an elementary school wall. The kids all contributed. When they see this they get this reinforced every time that they are in a struggle against the culture: http://sparcinla.org/the-judy-baca-academy/
The project is to “illuminate the children’s stories of struggle, determination and commemorate identity, aspirations and dreams” and was dreamed up by a lefty ‘Latina’ prof at UCLA. Just another example of how young minds are being made impervious to truth.

General Nathan Bedford Forrest was a famous Confederate General during the Civil War, and was one of the founders of the KKK after the War. He later resigned from the KKK explaining that a criminal element had taken control of the organization.
After some quick Google-ing, I found out what had happened. Dr Foner was talking about Nathan Bedford Forrest, II, General Forrest’s grandson.I apologize for my reaction to the piece, even though Foner didn’t name the man properly. You see, for Civil War buffs, Nathan Bedford Forrest is not only famous, he is infamous.
Nobody knows who his grandson was, and it is interesting that he ran the organization that his grandfather founded, and later eschewed.
