You cant compare pre-civil rights democrat/republican parties to the ones that exist nowadays.

I think MLK Jr. accepted help from whomever he could from both Democrats and Republicans. The issue of racial discrimination was much bigger than his party affiliation.

even though you are literally the most transparent troll in the entire universe, i still think now is as good a time as any to remind the good denizens of cc that king was an avowed socialist, since you're bringing him up

Of course, how else do you think Bush could have actually won a second term...

Theory: the zombies ate the brains, and with them the intelligence, of a large part of the members of the republican party, the evidence is that otherwise Tron Paul would have won... or something?

Ok I'll feed the troll:
Map of free/slave states before the civil war;

(green = free states/territories, red = slave states, salmon = slave territories)
2000 election map:

2004 election map:

2008 election map:

Pattern there anyone?

The coastline of the United States hasn't changed since the Civil War.
Oh, and by the way, you missed about, I don't know, almost 200 years of history in there. But, hey, it's okay, Republicans are racist and want to own slaves again; I think we can all get on board with that.
Finally, there's no way in hell MLK Jr. would ever support affirmative action.

That's not even a map of the final results for 2004

Way to go, Iowa!
