Jeffrey also blames the Democrats for slavery. Anyhow, I just want to point out something historically here. Democrats weren’t the only slaveowners during that time. Plenty of Southern Whigs were secessionists too and a lot of Northern Democrats including many of Lincoln’s generals were in fact Democrats.

My brother tried pulling that on me a few months ago. He saw the Dinesh Dsouza propaganda film that focused on the early Democratic ties to slavery, KKK, and racism, ignoring the historical shift in the 1960’s- 70’s, where Southern racists abandoned the Democratic party for the Republican party.
