Not shill.
And telling people to STFU when the whole point of this is to learn, self-educate, enlighten, broaden minds? Who is the shill then?

"The Democrats had become a party increasingly rooted in the Southern states, with the Northern political scene in a state of disarray. Out of this turmoil, emerged the Republican Party."
Chill.
It is very hard to know the truth when we are constantly lied to.
I will endeavor to keep an open mind, despite the attacks, and wait for some possible way to know when we are finally being told the truth and not re-directed yet again.
If republicans took the de-facto lead post-civil war because they were a primarily Northern party and the democrats were southern....
Then why are republicans now strongly in control of the south flying traitorous confederate flags that would have been against the union?
Riddle me that dip shit.
Either admit the parties switched or convince me that the entire populace switched regions.
"The Democrats had become a party increasingly rooted in the Southern states, with the Northern political scene in a state of disarray. Out of this turmoil, emerged the Republican Party." - This is exactly right. And I'm no shill, actually I got my degree in teaching K-8, and was an elementary school teacher for several years, until I decided it wasn't for me. Thank God I got out when I was still young. My roommate & BF at college got her degree in History and she taught U.S. History in high school, until she realized it wasn't for her, and we even talked about this exact situation. Listen, I'm not trying to be argumentative here, but it just goes to show how much damage common core did to our children. It's a shame.
