In the 1960s, the Dems threw the racists out of their political
conventions

It was more like the democrats became dominated by the unions and the
big city political machines so the rest of the country abandoned them.
Now the worst racist are in the big cities anyway. They just isolate
them selves from minorities with money and it is only when they get
outed like Mark Cuban and Don Stirling that we ever hear about them.

You're a funny guy. I remember the 2000 and 2004 Democratic conventions.
You're wrong. The Dems refused to seat the Southern racist Democrats,
and they bolted to the GOP.

Who was refused at the convention? in 2000 and 2004?
I almost believed you about 1968. These days I doubt there is any
southern support the democrats would not take.

A recent study showed that by the normal metrics the north east was
the most segregated area of the nation. (schools, housing private
clubs etc)

My mistake. I meant the 1960s not 2000. But I am sure you knew that.
