Your link says Edwin Johnson used the National Guard to seal the Colorado border against Mexican immigrants. There's a Democrat I can get behind!!
You don't need to cross party lines, Moddy. Clarence Morley, Republican Governor from 1925-1927 is your guy. Klan member, bigot, and later a convicted felon for fraud. He hits all of your criteria in a candidate.
It's almost unimaginable to think that today's GOP once held these beliefs…
Pinkos!
Yep, if Republicans like you succeed in rolling the clock back 150 years, you'd proudly switch to the "Democrat" Party, don't deny it!
…and he'll be gettin' wild in the sheets with Ann
The Drumpfographics of today's Grand Old Party are more like that
great,rugged,pot-belliedindependentgovernment mooch Cliven Bundy.And they named one of the two tunnels that bypass Loveland Pass after Johnson. Hmm…
I was glad to read of this history, hadn't seen it before. Min Yasui, who stood against the Japanese Internment promoted by a Democrat (FDR)* stood against the camps, at great personal sacrifice of his own freedom and career, and moved to Denver in 1944. Many Japanese Americans, including Mr. Yasui, moved to Colorado after the war, post-resettlement because of Governor Carr's principled stand which lost him the election.
My parents knew Mr. Yasui, and I was honored to meet him and his wife, True. Mr. Yasui was active in many civil rights organizations in Denver, advocating for all minorities and poor people. There is a bust of him in Sakura Square downtown, together with one of Governor Carr. Yet, most schoolchildren in Colorado never learn of our own state's moral and Constitutional struggles during WWII.
* One freebie for you, Moddy – gratuitious Democrat slam.
He needs to go back to pre-Southern Strategy days to slam Dems on these matters. That was then. KKK members, white supremacists, segregationists, etc. left the Dem party and started voting R decades ago.
Give the kids this to read, MJ:
