Famous Republicans A Virtual Cemetery created by: Dave
Description: Martin Luther King Jr. was a Republican, so were most blacks (African Americans) during his time. It was the Democratic Party that was known as: "The Slavery Party". Frederick Douglass eagerly attended the founding meeting of the Republican Party in 1854 and campaigned for its nominees. Ronald Reagan made Martin Luther King Jr. Day a National Holiday. Study your History!! I'm not against Democrats as my Grandparents were ones. I find it interesting however that the Democratic Party was hijacked by radical leftist/progressives, and most Democrats are still asleep about that. Hey Republicans: Knock it off and get back to the Constitution! http://www.nbra.info/index.cfm?fuseaction=pages.blackgop&x=3135217
