| | Dividing people by coded racism became a staple of the Southern Strategy leading up to Willie Horton ads used successfully by the first Bush against Michael Dukakis in 1988, and the junior Bush's smear campaign against Sen. John McCain's adopted interracial child during the 2000 Republican primary. | | | The measure, which would have blocked busing and killed desegregation for all practical purposes, died a few weeks later when the Republicans and Southern Democrats in the Senate could not garner enough votes for cloture. | | | It was the last gasp on the part of segregationists to prevent the federal courts from enforcing desegregation of the public schools, a fight that started in earnest with the 1954 Supreme Court decision in Brown v. |

| | The strategy itself was to take advantage of the deteriorating loyalty of Southern Democrats with their party which had taken a leftward path toward a bigger more intrusive national government. | | | This approach - a thinly veiled continuation of the "Southern Strategy" designed by Sen. Barry Goldwater decades ago - is flawed in several ways: First, should the act be extended to all 50 states, it would seriously dilute the effect of challenges to laws that have civil-rights concerns. | | | First, the Southern Strategy (hereafter simply the Strategy) was initiated by Richard Nixon in 1960. |

| | One of the advantages of the non-southern strategy is that the Democratic presidential candidate won't have to try to appeal to a bloc of very conservative southern white voters who aren't likely to vote for him anyway. | | | A final problem is that if a non-southern strategy induces the national party to move sharply left and to abandon serious competition in the region, the down-ballot implications of the strategy could be serious, indeed. | | | The whole point of this strategy should be to allow the Democrats to craft a clear message that both excites liberal base voters and holds appeal for moderate white swing voters, especially in the Midwest where the loss of manufacturing jobs and health-care access have hit particularly hard. |

| | After looking at the history, I've come to the firm conclusion that the "Southern Strategy" is actually a myth created by the Democrats and their media friends to explain why their party lost the South... | | | First of all, the southern strategy was intended to win the Republicans the presidency. | | | The point is, the GOP took in Southern White democrats from the 1960s to the present day because of philosophical agreement with many aspects of white southern culture, but not because of their racial views. |
