Bill Clinton pretty much called all southern white people racist . To say that the slogan "Make America great again "is all about white power it's a stretch by any imagination .
Let's not forget to look into the history books and you'll find that Democrats founded the KKK and the Democrats fought for a states right to keep slavery while the Republicans fought to abolish it .

Another example of the simplistic View forwarded by Conservatives
can we talk current events.. not how things were 140 years ago
Historians say the KKK consisted of a group of Southern whites after the Civil War who were Democrats. But there’s no evidence the KKK was created by their political party.
It should also be noted that the anti-black Democratic Party of the 1860s and 1870s bears no similarity to the party of today.

The new GOP actually wants to do something to help those in urban areas . What's the new Democratic Party got? Maybe move a bunch of Syrian refugees into Detroits empty housing?
You people actually believe that calling for a photo ID to vote is racist. That's how far over the edge you have gone . I think college kids today should pursuing a career in psychological therapy, I see a very promising future in it .

What is your objection to this? Is this supposed to be racist? Wouldn't the requirement be applied to all races?
Supreme Court Shuts Down Michigan’s Push To Eliminate ‘Straight-Ticket’ Voting
Straight ticket applies to both parties. This would affect Republican voters as well as Democrats. Although it's not necessary to vote straight ticket, voters are persuaded by political machines to do so, thereby dumbing them down to strict party lines--making it easier for either party to get bad candidates elected when there would be a better choice.
The "ease" of straight ticket voting makes it easier to dissuade voters from any critical thinking and into just being Party mules--easier just to, as you might say, carry the Party's water.
It makes it easier to control political thought. And the supposed difficulty in splitting a ticket (it's not difficult nor a hardship) in favor of a straight ticket actually makes it difficult, if not impossible, for instance, for a Republican to even run in any Detroit precincts. It's a version of your "we dont need to convince you to Vote for us we'll just make it harder [for Republicans] in the hopes you don't vote for them
Republican-Authored Voting Laws in Wisconsin, Kansas, North Carolina Overturned
This is a simplistic statement.

You could more justly apply this statement to the political concept of your party giving you more than the other party. There is no need to convince voters of the virtue of self-reliance and personal freedom if you can provide them with enough to get along. No need to convince you that it is destructive to a free civil society when government takes your place in shaping your life.
It is very difficult to have a rational political discussion with someone who wants free stuff. And it is almost impossible to convince that person that the stuff is not free.

"again that was 66 years ago your getting closer it is 2016"
OK. In 2016, most states run by liberals for decades (CT, RI, Mass, IL) are on the verge of bankruptcy, but liberals deny it or ignore it. Today in 2016, cities run by liberals for decades (Hartford, New Haven, Bridgeport, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Chicago, Milwaukee are uninhabitable sh*tholes, where thanks to liberalism, huge numbers of blacks are stuck in poverty with no way to lift themselves out. Liberals deny it, or ignore it. Here in 2016, after years of Obama, we have the slowest recovery from a recession ever, with median wages that are down since he's been in office, and pathetic GDP growth, and staggering increases to his debt. Here is 2016, thanks to liberalism, schools can't give chocolate milk or soda to little kids, but they hand out condoms.
" federal appeals court has blocked a proof-of-citizenship requirement on a federal mail voter registration form in Kansas, Alabama and Georgia.

OK, Obama was successfully sued by Hobby Lobby and the Little Sisters of The Poor for trampling on their First Amendment Rights. What is your point?
Here in 2016, the GOP controls both houses of Congress (for now, the Senate is up for grabs)) and has a huge majority of governorships and state legislatures.
