Jason Mattera of *Human
Events*<http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=44162>writes on June
14, 2011:
*"A crucial part of the Democrats’ victim folklore is that they have been
losing the South to Republicans over the past half century because the
Democrats stood on principle to oppose race discrimination, while the
Republican Party pandered to racists in the South—a region of the country
liberals believe is composed primarily of Klan members.... The Republican
Party’s allegedly racist appeal to Southerners is darkly referred to 17
times a day in the mainstream media as the 'Southern Strategy.'*
*[In her new book,
Demonic<http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0307353486?tag=eregnery-20>,
Ann Coulter tackles] the popular myth that Democrats are the party of
civil rights. It’s the exact opposite, she states, noting, 'It was
Republicans who overwhelmingly introduced, promoted and passed every civil
rights act from the end of the Civil War right up to and including the 1964
Civil Rights Act.'*
*...[The liberal fable is that] conservative hero Barry Goldwater opposed
the 1964 Civil Rights Act in order to appeal to racists in the South, and
for that reason, the GOP started to lose the black vote. The reality is
that Goldwater didn’t have a racist bone in his body...Goldwater founded the
NAACP chapter in Arizona, integrated the Arizona National Guard and ended
racial segregation in his family-owned department stores. In other words,
Goldwater was a vociferous foe of race discrimination, and actively fought
to abolish all the Jim Crow laws that Democrat politicians adopted."*
