Before the mid 1960s, political white supremacists in Southern States were in the Democratic Party, the south having been defeated by the north under Republican leadership a century earlier. Casada misses fondly that good-old-boy Democratic party.
After the Civil-Rights and Voting-Rights acts nurtured by the Kennedy/Johnson administration, white supremacists jumped to the Republican Party. Casada abhors the supremacist-depleted Democratic party.
Casada faults the Democratic Party for no longer reflecting the beliefs of its conservative founders. Both exploited slaves -- one raped his 15-year-old slave girl and enslaved their issue, the other dispossessed whole tribes of native Americans, murdering thousands in the process.
The Reagan code -- conservatism, low taxes, small government, personal responsibility, trickle-down job creation, welfare cheat, market forces -- is about perpetual white advantage.
