You and Ustwo may not be racists, but you've allowed your party to be hijacked by racists, many in the form of former southern democrats or dixiecrats. I know several 'old school' republicans proudly carrying on Lincoln's tradition, but please face the modern world. You can't defend your party by pointing to policies that helped blacks 140 years ago when you are simultaneously arguing for policies that are detrimental to blacks today. When you do, you come off looking like a hypocrit.
