OK, so far your purposes then, the Democratic warmongering that made
the Vietnam War and turned it into a quagmire wasn't the twentieth
century and after "historical reversal of the roles of the Parties
with FDR."

^^^^
CB: You are logically challenged here.  The Vietnam peace movement
started independently of the DP, as Sartesian said. But when it went
into the DP in the McGovern election of 1972 far from dying, it
succeeded , as the Viet Nam war was ended by 1973 (!).  This is the
complete opposite of what Sartisian claimed happens upon going into the
DP.  The peace movment changed the DP rather than the DP changing the
peace movement.

^^^^^

The Democratic axe-murder of the Equal Rights Amendment wasn't the
twentieth century and after "historical reversal of the roles of the
Parties with FDR."

^^^
CB: The DP didn't axe murder ERA. Roe vs Wade was a major achievement
of goals by the modern women's movement, but that was somewhat unrelated
to either party.  There were major advances in women's rights and powers
in family law in the last 40 years.  I'm not sure that these were
directly party related. Nonetheless, for purposes of this thread they
are another example of a social movement _not_ dying due to conduct of
the DP, further undermining Sartesian's initial claim.

^^^^^

And the actual tightening of segregation in the 1940s and into the
1950s wasn't the twentieth century and after "historical reversal of
the roles of the Parties with FDR."

^^^^
CB: You really need to practice logic.  The Civil Rights Movement of
the 1950's and 60's substantially achieved its goals in the form of
federal legislation and Constitutional Amendment. This was carried out
by the Democratic Party in the Federal government, in the main. LBJ told
Richard Russell he knew it would sacrifice the Dems, but said that would
have to be ( current documentary says this).

^^^^

And in the old Soviet Union, the workers all had flying unicycles.

^^^^
CB: Anti-Sovietism is really stupid for "socialists".
