Even the guy who made that movie isn't saying that. "Not one Republican owned slaves during the Civil War." Dinesh D'Souza. Still not true but at least he tries to add a qualifier.
Oh! Please explain the error! Yes it is in the movie, and I already knew. The first Republican to run for President was John C Fremont. The first to get Elected was Lincoln and of course you know, there were no slaves after that.
Every Republican Congressman from Kentucky, which did not accept the party’s “containment” platform, owned slaves between 1854 and 1864.
What exactly do you think it was telling? That the person was too much of a wimp to actually fill out the affidavit, vote and wait to see if the ballot was counted? Until you do that you haven't proven a thing. Or is it telling that the retired people volunteering their time to help people vote don't know who Huma Abiden is? Or is this about Muslims? They shouldn't wear burkas because we can't tell who they are? What about nuns? A full habit isn't that different from a burka. So no burkas, no habits, how about a minister collar? Those too? Oh wait, the video said a person could smuggle a bomb inside wearing a burka. But if that is really a concern a skinny person could smuggle a bomb inside of a fat suit too. We should start a list, we're on to something here. People who should not be allowed to vote: Muslim women Nuns Fat people
LOL wow the point of the video went above your head. The point was to show how easy it is to game the system and commit voter fraud.
But no one committed voter fraud in that video. If it was so easy why didn't they do it? It's like walking into a bank with a hidden video camera and whispering, "I could rob this place." then posting a video claiming that banks are easy to rob.
All she needed to do was fill out the paperwork. There was no requirement for an ID check, and that was the point of the video and why they were talking about the burka. C'mon man...
Not really true. They were his father-in-law's slaves, but one of which, he was given. He freed that slave long before he became a member of the Republican party which began with John C Fremont running for President in 1856. Grant didn't belong to the Republican party until after the war. Sort of like Eisenhower. Come to think of it, I can't think of a General that joined a Party while still serving on active duty, ever. I suppose there may have been one, but not Grant.
It was more than just some paperwork, it was an affidavit claiming that's who she was. If it was so easy why didn't she do it? We didn't she take it to the next logical step and actually vote. If she voted and they counted the vote then I agree, that's a problem. But that never happened. She didn't prove anything. And why was she wearing a burka? Any person could go in there and fill out an affidavit. Again, why not a nun's habit? Why not a fat suit?
Oh I got the picture. Muslim women wearing burkas can commit election fraud or can "drop a bomb" out of their burkas and blow up a polling place.
umm, perhaps I was hasty with the Renegades! There doesn't appear to be any of those you suggest. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_Representatives_from_Kentucky
LOL! Most of the state Republican parties accepted the antislavery goal except Kentucky. In Congress, the party passed major legislation to promote rapid modernization, including a national banking system, high tariffs, the first income tax, many excise taxes, paper money issued without backing ("greenbacks"), a huge national debt, homestead laws, railroads, and aid to education and agriculture.
