GOP SEEKS TO WOO, SUPPRESS BLACK VOTE
Republican party strategists have fixed upon a two-prong strategy,
aiming to entice more African-Americans to vote Republican,
while at the same time taking agressive measures to suppress
the black vote and discourage as many black people as possible
from voting.
GOP strategist Alex Conant explained that "While this two-pronged
approach might seem hypocritical, self-defeating or inept,
it is actually an example of pure, Machiavellian genius."
"You see", he continued, "the only combination where we lose is
if we succeed in getting a black person to vote Republican, but
then also succeed in stopping him from voting. Our bad.
However, we win if he was not persuaded to vote Republican but
we succeed in blocking him from voting. We also win if we convince
him to vote Republican but then fail in our effort to block him
from voting. If we fail in getting him to vote Republican but
also fail in blocking his vote, well, that doesn't change anything.
So-. two scenarios where we win, one scenario where we lose,
and one scenario that makes no difference. Overall, that works
out to our advantage. Not to mention that more black people tend
to vote Democratic. I cannot for the life of me understand why."

This Man Can't Vote Today Because Kentucky's GOP Governor
Reversed A Major Voting Rights Victory
The 55-year-old Louisville resident said he was inspired at that
hour as he finished watching the film Selma, which tells the
story of the 1965 marches led by Martin Luther King Jr. and
other civil rights leaders who fought for voting rights for
African Americans across the United States.
I feel less than human," he said. "I feel less than a man. I get
frustrated." His eyes turned red and tears began to form as he
spoke about not being able to participate in this crucial
presidential election
I paid my debt," he continued a minute later. "I don't do
nothing wrong today. I can pay taxes here in the state of
Kentucky, but I can't vote. Nowhere in the U.S. Constitution.
does it say that my right can ever be taken away from me. I've
read it and I've read it, and I'm not illiterate. I feel cheated
and robbed."

Trump and Putin are two of a kind: bigoted demagogues with dual
histories of corruption and aggression.
Much as US white supremacists have embraced Putin, Russian white
supremacists have greeted Trump's rise with approval, creating
Russian versions of Trump campaign sites and memes applauding
Trump's cheerleading of Russian imperialism. ("Crimea is yours,"
a cartoon Trump proclaims, a play on the Russian slogan, "Crimea
is ours.")
Over the past decade, both the US and Russia have seen a rise in
white-supremacist movements, often violent, that target non-
white and non-Christian citizens. In Russia, many of these
movements are already incorporated into Putin's base. In the US,
these movements have shifted from the fringes to the center due
to Trump's campaign team elevating them, retweeting them, and
repositioning their bigoted dogma as GOP gospel.

Strategy (see also Lee Atwater on the Southern Strategy), said:
You start out in 1954 by saying, "Nigger, nigger, nigger." By

What Many Americans Get Wrong About States' Rights
This weekend's Ku Klux Klan rally outside the South Carolina
capitol building highlights the poignancy and divisiveness
inherent in flying the Confederate battle flag, a symbol often
associated with racial intolerance. Predictably, Confederate
apologists have trotted out the "states' rights" explanation for
the Civil War as the race-neutral reason for the South's
rebellion-thus the flag represents something other than racism

Confederate states did claim the right to secede, but no state
claimed to be seceding for that right. In fact, Confederates
opposed states' rights - that is, the right of Northern states
not to support slavery.
On Dec. 24, 1860, delegates at South Carolina's secession
convention adopted a "Declaration of the Immediate Causes Which
Induce and Justify the Secession of South Carolina from the
Federal Union." It noted "an increasing hostility on the part of
the non-slaveholding States to the institution of slavery" and
protested that Northern states had failed to "fulfill their
constitutional obligations" by interfering with the return of
fugitive slaves to bondage. Slavery, not states' rights, birthed
the Civil War.

Polling in South Carolina, which holds its Republican primary on
Saturday, reveals the single most salient difference between
Trump's supporters and those of his rivals: They are much more
likely to endorse white ethnic nationalism and to express
nostalgia for traditional Southern racism. In light of this
polling, Trump's campaign can best be understood not as an
outlier but as the latest manifestation of the Southern Strategy,
which the Republican Party has deployed for a half-century to
shore up its support in the old Confederate states by appeals to
racial resentment and white solidarity.
