A CIVICS TEST FOR ALL AMERICANS

 Regardless of race, ethnicity, or sex, far too many of us do not know our history. The Democrat party has done a very effective job of controlling the historical narrative in the last fifty years. To hear them tell it the Republican party is responsible for the problems in this country, primarily racism. The Republican's can win elections but they have done a terrible job at waging the culture war. Democrats have won that war and it will probably destroy America sooner rather than later.

I am not a Republican but I vote Republican most of the time because it is the only party I can vote for and sleep at night with a fairly clean conscience. I was a Democrat and drank the Kool-Aid until I was in my early thirties. Ronald Reagan was responsible for my #Walk Away experience. Some of my questions in this test are overly simplistic. For example there were multiple reasons for the acquisition of Florida, the Mexican War, or the Civil War but all my questions are based on a factual aspect of each situation. In addition Democrats like Harry Truman, John Kennedy, and Lyndon Johnson did actually do things that were beneficial for Black people and their contribution cannot be ignored, regardless of what their real motives might have been, I don't have the ability to get into their heads. For example Truman and Johnson used the n-word in their personal speech until the day that they died. You are more likely to hear about the Democrat accomplishments in school, and less about the damage they have done. This is why I put this test together.

Johnson's welfare policies did much to destroy the Black nuclear family and those policies are also in the process of destroying the White nuclear family. These policies have also led to the tremendous rise of crime in America due to fatherless homes. I do not believe Johnson intended to damage the American family. This was just the unintended consequences of his policies. We also have to blame the Communist counterculture movement and the hippie movement for the destruction of the American family and our American values. These movements pushed the sexual revolution, free love, and the drug culture in America. Again Lyndon Johnson gets the indirect blame for this by pursuing a disastrous war in Vietnam. This war unleashed a Pandora's box of social problems.

Republican's cannot be held totally blameless for racial problems in America. For example there was the great sellout of Black people, or Compromise of 1877 in which Republican president Rutherford B. Hayes ordered an end to reconstruction policies in the South in order to secure his election as president in a very closely contested election. This agreement in essence abandoned the former slaves to the mercy of Democrat White supremacist policies in the South such as Jim Crow and lynching. Then there was the Brownsville incident during the presidency of Republican president Theodore Roosevelt where a group of Black soldiers were falsely accused of a murder in Brownsville Texas. This episode was a Black eye for Roosevelt and the Republican party. When you look at history in total, however; the Republican party, in the vast majority of situations, has always stood on the right side of the issues. The Democrat party has been responsible for the majority of the problems that this country has faced since it's formation in the 1820's.

Give this test to anyone you know that might be uninformed but willing to learn. As for the willfully ignorant, as Colonel Jessup might say, some people can't handle the truth.
