Do you know anything at all about your country's political history?
started around Kennedy, total swap after Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act
Because the parties are way different now than they were back then. The democrats started the KKK but they had the first black president.
Democrats realized that the best way to enslave niggers was through welfare
Look up Nixon's "southern strategy"
all the states are turning red now
Tennessee's always been more flexible politically than most of the South. It's an undeniably red state these days but people vote far more for the candidate than the party.
Democrats loved slavery and hated blacks. 100% of democrats voted against slavery and the 15th amendment. Democrats also were against the civil rights movement.
After they got BTFO, they started to relocate.
THIS
Southern Democrats still made up a significant part of the Democratic Party until the 90's though. Hell, Bill Clinton was from Arkansas and won a number of Southern states.
because political lines are actually drawn across belief in true christianity, which is to say, the words of Christ and the Bible, as it actually appears
once the satanic jew began to directly attack Christianity through the ambiguity and tolerance of liberalism, the true believers in the Bible had little choice but to swap to more conservative views
ie politics is bullshit
Because Republicans and Democrats have effectively swapped places.
Democrats are just much better liars and much more willing to pander.
My theory is that it's the result of the same polical shift that's now happening in western Europe. In the latter half of the 20th century the democratic party shifted from being the party of working people to the party of minorities and smug liberalism, leading to working class whites jumping to the republicans. Similarly the social democratic parties of Europe are becoming the parties of immigrants and immigration, and working whites jump to the alt-right.
Because Southerners generally stopped being racist, so they stopped voting for the party of racism.
because there's always been a northeastern establishment, so when they decided to abandon the republican party, the map got recolored. but not much has changed policy-wise since abe lincoln.

The fundamentals of the parties changed over time. Most southern states voted for Dixiecrats which ere quite different than their northern contemporaries.
Johnson signed civil rights act and took all credit and said I will now have captured the negro vote for at least half a century
>Ross "The Boss" Perot
I cry every time
the 1960s happened
Cute leftist girls like this.
There was a major shift in the 60s.
Pretty much this. After JFK, Democratic party became neo-slave master by cucking minorities into voting for them. Much of their base left in the next three or our decades, and the religious right was able to scoop many of the disenfranchised Southerners, as were "states rights"/"big business" wings of the GOP.
