Because Democrats used to be the conservative party and Republicans used to be progressives. Back in the 19th century. That flipped in the 20th century. Nowadays Republicans abjor the word progressive. I think the better question is why did the Republican party change and start welcoming regressive Democrats like Strom Thurmond and Jesse Helms. |
Has anyone on this thread discussed the exemption for military academies and why SCOTUS said affirmative action is ok there? |
While Joe calls it 'hypocritical' what SCOTUS did, in 2018 he used his influence to get his.grand daughter into UPenn.

Yep. Worse than a legacy admission, IMO. |
I think most liberals would love to do away with legacy and VIP admissions. So you’ll find no disagreement with us. |
Well that’s one thing Biden and Trump have in common!! |
The Biden granddaughter isn't a legacy at UPenn. Rather Joe used his connections to get her in. |
Nice try. Are you really that embarrassed of your own party's history that you are willing to flip with the opposing party? |
White privileges. |
Do you not know what VIP means? |
Flip from being conservative to progressive? Yes!! |
White power privilege for sure. Get rid of such admissions. |
You can’t be that stupid. Elections are votes for current candidates and current parties. Voting Republican, is voting for the anti-civil rights, pro-states rights to racially discriminate party of today. Voting Democratic is voting for the progressive party of today. But you know that. You are just another dimwitted bad-faith troll. |
You clearly haven't studied history. try looking up the southern strategy. Long story short, today's racists from the south that you chastise in your post, are the republican party. The shift started when democrat Lyndon Johnson signed the 1964 civil rights act. |
yes, in the 1970's Biden was a product of his upbringing and the time. He has also evolved as a human since then, as rational people are able to do. |
