Why Martin Luther King Was Republican

It should come as no surprise that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican. In that era, almost all black Americans were Republicans. Why? From its founding in 1854 as the anti-slavery party until today, the Republican Party has championed freedom and civil rights for blacks. And as one pundit so succinctly stated, the Democrat Party is as it always has been, the party of the four S’s: slavery, secession, segregation and now socialism.
It was the Democrats who fought to keep blacks in slavery and passed the discriminatory Black Codes and Jim Crow laws. The Democrats started the Ku Klux Klan to lynch and terrorize blacks. The Democrats fought to prevent the passage of every civil rights law beginning with the civil rights laws of the 1860s, and continuing with the civil rights laws of the 1950s and 1960s.
During the civil rights era of the 1960s, Dr. King was fighting the Democrats who stood in the school house doors, turned skin-burning fire hoses on blacks and let loose vicious dogs. It was Republican President Dwight Eisenhower who pushed to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1957 and sent troops to Arkansas to desegregate schools. President Eisenhower also appointed Chief Justice Earl Warren to the U.S. Supreme Court, which resulted in the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision ending school segregation. Much is made of Democrat President Harry Truman’s issuing an Executive Order in 1948 to desegregate the military. Not mentioned is the fact that it was Eisenhower who actually took action to effectively end segregation in the military

Here is what I found: http://www.humanevents.com/2006/08/16/why-martin-luther-king-was-republican/
That site speakiths the truth about history. Check it out, it has a lot of information. Most of it is true.
- If all blacks were all republicans then, why did they switch to the democrats? It make me scratch my head as to why a black man can be a Democrat. It almost like they have stock holm syndrome.
Something else this addresses is that Martin Luther King was possibly assassinated by a Democrat. That is typical.
This is the reason I put this in here. I want the morons at the DUmp to see this. The Liberals dream man was a Republican, but yet they praise everything about him. I wonder what they would think if he was still alive today and doing what he was back then?

DU has already explained this 'inconvenient truth' away --
According to many on DU, parties periodically switch ideologies, and even though the names don't change, the soul of the party does. Using this logic, they have claimed all political leaders they like as their own. All other leaders are nasty rethugs.

I don't believe in the party Flip-Flopping scheme. If anything, the Republicans haven't changed and the Democrats are spreading manure to try and move away from their embarrassing past.

Nailed it. You can say more with less words than most people I've met. Would you consider giving Vesta some pointers?

Nothing the left espouse represents Martin Luther King, especially this:
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.
