Duhhhh, 1964. That's because at one time Rs were the progressive party under Linclon and Ds were the racist Confederacy. 60 years ago there were still a lot of racists in the Dem party. Not so much now. The R party is now the Confederacy, full of racists and Bible-thumping grifters and pin-heads. But I'm sure billie the pinhead and tommie the vatnik will like your post.
