A poll by the way. Columbus Day is very depressing for the left like Independence Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.  :mental:

 Every Columbus Day the internet is abuzz with how Columbus was a genocidal psychopathic maniac, equivalent to Hitler as far as many are concerned. And obviously a city named "Hitler" would not be tolerated in Germany.

Wonder if Hillary & rest of Dem clowns will still appear at the upcoming Jefferson/Jackson fund raiser? Highly doubtful.

It's safe for them to go.  The PC Police and SJW's stepped in back when the people were shot in SC and saved the day.

Jefferson-Jackson Dinner Will Be Renamed

An Iowa Democratic Party panel voted on Saturday to change the name of the popular Jefferson-Jackson dinner, joining several state parties in distancing itself from the legacies of the two former slave-owning presidents for whom the dinner is named.

Andy McGuire, the party chairwoman, said the State Central Committee voted Saturday to begin the process of changing the name. A single-sentence resolution was approved overwhelmingly by a voice vote, said Sam Lau, a state party spokesman. The change will take effect after this year’s event in late October.

The annual dinner, which draws big crowds and presidential hopefuls looking for an early advantage in Iowa’s first-in-the-nation caucuses, is named for Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson. Both owned slaves, and President Jackson carried out a bloody campaign to remove Native Americans from the South to make way for white settlers.

“The vote to change the name of the Jefferson-Jackson Dinner comes after much debate and discussion among our activists and grass-roots leaders around the state,” Dr. McGuire said. “This was not a decision that was made lightly. The vote today confirms that our party believes it is important to change the name of the dinner to align with the values of our modern-day Democratic Party: inclusiveness, diversity and equality.”
