I am a Georgia resident about to graduate from high school. I am eligible for the HOPE scholarship, which is full tuition to any public colleges in GA. But I still find it difficult to pay my dorm and all that. I live in a low income, single parent family, is there any federal/state grant or any aid out there that can help me pay for those without paying them back? Thank you. moreResolved Question: Important FAFSA Question?
Long story short...I was accepted to Georgia State University and unfortunate events delayed me from going to school for the past semester and a half, so I am now arranging to make up some credits at a local accredited Technical college. Their FAFSA priority deadline was Feb 1, 2009 (which they just told me yesterday). I applied a few days after I believe, so does this mean I will not get any aid from the government whatsoever? I filled out FAFSA last year and qualified for both the Ga HOPE scholarship because of my GPA and a Pell Grant. If I have to pay the fees myself for now, will fafsa reimburse me if I quialify? Are all student loans based on fafsa? Could I take out a student loan even though my school's fafsa deadline is past, and repay the loan with my reimbursed financial aid (assuming I do get the money?) I really need a loan or some sort of money to aid me quickly because I have to pay the school in about three weeks and thought that I was getting financial aid soon. Thanks! Thanks for your help, but I did fill out the 2008-2009 FASA a few weeks ago, and I start school in a little under a month. Hopefully something will be processed by then and I can at least get a Pell Grant. That will cover all of the fees that I am unable to. I'll just go talk to the Fin Aid office. oh thank you! Fin Aid officer...just what I needed. Do you know of any loans I could get within the next two weeks? I never planned on taking out a loan, but now I have to, and I need one fast! I could easily pay it back even without the fin aid because I only need $1,000 max. I do not plan on taking out more than that. moreVoting Question: Tax Question!!! Can I claim my fiance on my tax return?
My fiance is in medical college and we do not live together, although, I do support more than 50% and she has a gross income under $3,500. Her student loans, grants and scholarships are not included in her gross income, if I'm not mistaken. We both live in Georgia. Can I claim her? moreResolved Question: Do you need to have taken the SAT and/or the ACT to get the Georgia HOPE scholarship?
I want to go to culinary school, or a tech school that offers a chef program, and a lot of them don't require SAT or ACT results. However, in able to pay for my school, I'm going to need the HOPE's help. I figure it would be pointless to waste money on the SAT/ACT if I don't need it, but do I in able to get this scholarship? Or should I just go for a different method altogether? Say, a grant or something? I'm not very informed when it comes to life after high school. =( Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks one and all. =) moreResolved Question: What happens to my excess financial aid?
I will be an entering freshman during the fall at a university in Georgia. My HOPE scholarship covers my entire cost of attendace (scholarship for students who maintained 3.0 or higher GPA in high school). However, my overall financial aid including the Federal Pell Grant and Federal Subsidized Loan exceed the total cost of attendance by over $3,000 in a single semester alone. What happens to that excess $3,000 which consists of the loan and the Pell Grant? Do I not receive the funds because the HOPE alone covers the total cost of attendace? Or will I get the $3,000? Thanks moreResolved Question: Please help me go to University?

I live in georgia, and here that have the Hope Scholarship. Which is what I'll be using next year when I start college. My cousin who lives in North Carolina is trying to figure out what states offer what, (She doesn't have a lot of money for school.. neither do I (Thank God for the Hope.lol) So she would need a scholarship/grant) She's also trying to figure out which one's she can qualify for, and what's the best option for her.. So where can I find a simple, easy to use site to look for all this stuff for her? I tried googleing it, but it just took me to a bunch of other stuff that wasn't what I was looking for. Thanks! moreVoting Question: How does this sound. I need advice, critique, whatever. Be brutally honest, but nothing disrespectful!?
Hello everyone, it's been a while since I've asked a question. Well I need some advice. I plan on transferring next year to SCAD in the winter and I've been applying to as many scholarships as I possibly can to help me pay for tuition. Long story short I came across something this is the letter I need to send in to the judge to allow me to be submitted for the scholarship. Critique beginsssssss. NOW. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Salutations, My name is ---------------, I'm a 20 year old inspiring and upcoming animator and sequential artist who is currently attending college at Georgia Perimeter College. I will be transferring next year to Savannah College of Art and Design located in Atlanta to further my studies of the arts. I haven't actually taken any classes yet at Savannah College of Art in Design, but I've been accepted to start in January of 09; the winter quarter. As enthusiastic as I am about going to Savannah College of Art and Design, I also have feelings of discouragement knowing how much tuition is for the school! I've been searching the web for scholarships since the summer of 07, when I first started college at Gerogia Perimeter College. Since I didn't have to pay out of pocket while attending Georgia Perimeter College, I used that time to look up other scholarships online that would help me pay for tuition once I transferred to Savannah College of Art and Design. I received a scholarship from Savannah College of Art and Design for $5,000, but It expired since I had to take an extra 2 semesters at Georgia Perimeter College. I still didn't let that bring me down, my passion for cartooning and comics was too strong to allow me to just give up. I continued to search the web for scholarships. I knew that there had to be free money available; in the form of a scholarship, for cartoonist who want to pursue a career in animation and sequential art. Waiting for a fortunate college student like myself to discover. While surfing the Internet one day I decided to visit one of my favorite sites for all things art, which was drawn.ca. There was a posted article on the site about a scholarship tcreated in memory of the syndicate editor, Jay Kennedy. As I begin to read the article I was immediately convinced to enter this scholarship. I clicked on the link that led to a page where I could print out an application and enter for a chance to win this amazing scholarship, but then as I read the official rules for the contest it stated that you have to be at least a junior or senior in college. It was sad news when I read this because I'm only considered to be a sophomore now in college. I met all the other qualifications except for that one stipulation. This would have been a perfect opportunity for me to take advantage of, especially considering the fact that the contest is a genre of art targeted mainly towards my area of prestige. My purpose for typing this letter to you is to ask you, if possible could the contest allow a enthusiastic, optimistic, cartoonist like myself to enter for a chance to win the scholarship; even though I'm a sophomore and not yet a junior. I could still use the money either way! I don't mind working hard to achieve my goal and to get to where I need to be in life. The only blockage that I have in my life right now is the funding that I need to pay for my education. So far, my pell grant has been covering all of my tuition expenses at Georgia Perimeter College; since it's only a 2 year college. However, when I transfer to Savannah College of Art and Design, I know that I will not be able to lean on my pell grant entirely to get me through college. I'm also doing everything on my own and not receiving any financial help from my mother or family members. It's involuntary that my family can't help me due to their financial situation. If they had the money to give me, they wouldn't hesitate for a second to help me! I also want to avoid taking out any type of loans whatsoever. As I stated earlier, me and my family's financial situation isn't the best in the world. We are blessed to be able to make it through each day with a roof over our heads. Especially considering the state of today's economy! With that being said, It would be crazy for me to take out any type of loan. Me attending college was completely my decision and upon my own discretion. So far, I've been doing good and would like to continue on through college without any interruptions are breaks. I only have 2 more years until I actually finish my major and receive my bachelors in animation and sequential art. My dream is to one day own an animation and comic book company, but until that time I must first finish school. Before I get to the point of owning an animation and comic book company I would like to work for Cartoon Network or Teletoon in Canada. Again, the purpose for me writing this letter is to only ask for a chance to prove myself. Is ther anyway I can enter this contest being that I am a sophomore and not a junior in college. It would be greatly appreciated if there was a way for me to get around this one flaw. Whenever you get the time please respond back to me. Until then, I'll be busy drawing! FIN. FIN. moreResolved Question: How can I raise/earn $9000 by the end of August as an artist?
I needed $10,900 by the end of August to attend the Military College of Georgia. I have already got $1,900. I was wondering if anyone knows of anything I can do as an artist? I've made some money by doing portraits, but was wondering if anyone knows of government grants for artists? My work is pretty good - http://www.mattlawrence.artistportfolio.net/ - I just haven't had a chance to really showcase it. What is the best way to advertise a website? I really appreciate any and all help. Scholarships are no use because I don't intend to study art at college, but rather foreign language for the Army. Which is why I was wondering if someone in the know could point me in the direction of a grant? I'm getting older so its important that I get to college soon. Thanks all. moreResolved Question: If I can't get the HOPE scholarship, am still I eligible to receive the hope grant?
On the GSFC website (http://www.gacollege411.org/AdmissionApp/ScholarshipAndGrantApplications/hope_grant.asp), it lists two HOPE programs, the HOPE scholarship, and the HOPE grant, the HOPE grant states that there is no GPA requirement for that award. I am attending Georgia State University in the fall, and I am wondering if attending that school still makes me eligible for the HOPE Grant instead of the HOPE scholarship. moreResolved Question: What can I use the Pell Grant for?
I was wondering what i can use the money for. I recieved a grant but I don't need it for tuition. I have Hope scholarship which in Georgia pays your tuition. Can I use it to pay for my appartment since i didn't make on campus housing or does it have to go towards books and things like that? moreVoting Question: What are some grants and scholarships that I could use to pay for school since I already have a B.S.?
I graduated with a B.S in biology last year and now I am preparing to go off to P.A. school but i am missing one class that i need to be admitted. I don't have the funds to pay for school out of pocket and I want to avoid loans until i get into P.A. school. I am told that in the state of Georgia, I can't apply for aid since I already have a B.S. This places me in a difficult spot because I need to take this class but i am unable to pay for it at my local university. My best hope is grants, scholarships, or any other program that may help. moreResolved Question: How am I suppose to pay for college with no grants or scholarships?
I just graduated. I live with a friend after being kicked out of my home before graduation(it's not what you think. I am nowhere near a bad child). I filed my FAFSA while staying with my mom, even though at that time I was paying for all my own living expenses.My mom is in the military and was diagnosed with cancer. I have no money. No transportation. I had a decent job and car, but my car was totaled, not at my expense, and I lost my job because I couldnt get to work. I am homeless and jobless. I do not have parental support or any form of support at all. I really want to go to school. I was accepted into Spelman College but cannot pay for it. I also was accepted into Georgia State...yet again cannot pay for it. School starts in August...I dont know what to do.... moreResolved Question: Why do black people vote Democrats?Democrats started the kkk.Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican.?
Why do black people vote Democrats?Democrats started the kkk.Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican.? Why Martin Luther King Was Republican It should come as no surprise that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican. In that era, almost all black Americans were Republicans. Why? From its founding in 1854 as the anti-slavery party until today, the Republican Party has championed freedom and civil rights for blacks. And as one pundit so succinctly stated, the Democrat Party is as it always has been, the party of the four S's: slavery, secession, segregation and now socialism. It was the Democrats who fought to keep blacks in slavery and passed the discriminatory Black Codes and Jim Crow laws. The Democrats started the Ku Klux Klan to lynch and terrorize blacks. The Democrats fought to prevent the passage of every civil rights law beginning with the civil rights laws of the 1860s, and continuing with the civil rights laws of the 1950s and 1960s. During the civil rights era of the 1960s, Dr. King was fighting the Democrats who stood in the school house doors, turned skin-burning fire hoses on blacks and let loose vicious dogs. It was Republican President Dwight Eisenhower who pushed to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1957 and sent troops to Arkansas to desegregate schools. President Eisenhower also appointed Chief Justice Earl Warren to the U.S. Supreme Court, which resulted in the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision ending school segregation. Much is made of Democrat President Harry Truman's issuing an Executive Order in 1948 to desegregate the military. Not mentioned is the fact that it was Eisenhower who actually took action to effectively end segregation in the military.Democrat President John F. Kennedy is lauded as a proponent of civil rights. However, Kennedy voted against the 1957 Civil Rights Act while he was a senator, as did Democrat Sen. Al Gore Sr. And after he became President, Kennedy was opposed to the 1963 March on Washington by Dr. King that was organized by A. Phillip Randolph, who was a black Republican. President Kennedy, through his brother Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy, had Dr. King wiretapped and investigated by the FBI on suspicion of being a Communist in order to undermine Dr. King. In March of 1968, while referring to Dr. King's leaving Memphis, Tenn., after riots broke out where a teenager was killed, Democrat Sen. Robert Byrd (W.Va.), a former member of the Ku Klux Klan, called Dr. King a "trouble-maker" who starts trouble, but runs like a coward after trouble is ignited. A few weeks later, Dr. King returned to Memphis and was assassinated on April 4, 1968. Given the circumstances of that era, it is understandable why Dr. King was a Republican. It was the Republicans who fought to free blacks from slavery and amended the Constitution to grant blacks freedom (13th Amendment), citizenship (14th Amendment) and the right to vote (15th Amendment). Republicans passed the civil rights laws of the 1860s, including the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and the Reconstruction Act of 1867 that was designed to establish a new government system in the Democrat-controlled South, one that was fair to blacks. Republicans also started the NAACP and affirmative action with Republican President Richard Nixon's 1969 Philadelphia Plan (crafted by black Republican Art Fletcher) that set the nation's fist goals and timetables. Although affirmative action now has been turned by the Democrats into an unfair quota system, affirmative action was begun by Nixon to counter the harm caused to blacks when Democrat President Woodrow Wilson in 1912 kicked all of the blacks out of federal government jobs. Few black Americans know that it was Republicans who founded the Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Unknown also is the fact that Republican Sen. Everett Dirksen from Illinois was key to the passage of civil rights legislation in 1957, 1960, 1964 and 1965. Not mentioned in recent media stories about extension of the 1965 Voting Rights Act is the fact that Dirksen wrote the language for the bill. Dirksen also crafted the language for the Civil Rights Act of 1968 which prohibited discrimination in housing. President Lyndon Johnson could not have achieved passage of civil rights legislation without the support of Republicans. Critics of Republican Sen. Barry Goldwater, who ran for President against Johnson in 1964, ignore the fact that Goldwater wanted to force the Democrats in the South to stop passing discriminatory laws and thus end the need to continuously enact federal civil rights legislation. Those who wrongly criticize Goldwater also ignore the fact that Johnson, in his 4,500 State of the Union Address delivered on Jan. 4, 1965, mentioned scores of topics for federal action, but only 35 words were devoted to civil rights. He did not mention one word about voting rights. Then in 1967, showing his anger with Dr. King's protest against the Vietnam War, Johnson referred to Dr. King as "that ****** preacher." Contrary to the false assertions by Democrats, the racist "Dixiecrats" did not all migrate to the Republican Party. "Dixiecrats" declared that they would rather vote for a "yellow dog" than vote for a Republican because the Republican Party was know as the party for blacks. Today, some of those "Dixiecrats" continue their political careers as Democrats, including Robert Byrd, who is well known for having been a "Keagle" in the Ku Klux Klan. Another former "Dixiecrat" is former Democrat Sen. Ernest Hollings, who put up the Confederate flag over the state Capitol when he was the governor of South Carolina. There was no public outcry when Democrat Sen. Christopher Dodd praised Byrd as someone who would have been "a great senator for any moment," including the Civil War. Yet Democrats denounced then-Senate GOP leader Trent Lott for his remarks about Sen. Strom Thurmond (R.-S.C.). Thurmond was never in the Ku Klux Klan and defended blacks against lynching and the discriminatory poll taxes imposed on blacks by Democrats. If Byrd and Thurmond were alive during the Civil War, and Byrd had his way, Thurmond would have been lynched. The 30-year odyssey of the South switching to the Republican Party began in the 1970s with President Richard Nixon's "Southern Strategy," which was an effort on the part of Nixon to get Christians in the South to stop voting for Democrats who did not share their values and were still discriminating against their fellow Christians who happened to be black. Georgia did not switch until 2002, and some Southern states, including Louisiana, are still controlled by Democrats. Today, Democrats, in pursuit of their socialist agenda, are fighting to keep blacks poor, angry and voting for Democrats. Examples of how egregiously Democrats act to keep blacks in poverty are numerous. After wrongly convincing black Americans that a minimum wage increase was a good thing, the Democrats on August 3 kept their promise and killed the minimum wage bill passed by House Republicans on July 29. The blockage of the minimum wage bill was the second time in as many years that Democrats stuck a legislative finger in the eye of black Americans. Senate Democrats on April 1, 2004, blocked passage of a bill to renew the 1996 welfare reform law that was pushed by Republicans and vetoed twice by President Clinton before he finally signed it. Since the welfare reform law expired in September 2002, Congress had passed six extensions, and the latest expired on June 30, 2004. Opposed by the Democrats are school choice opportunity scholarships that would help black children get out of failing schools and Social Security reform, even though blacks on average lose $10,000 in the current system because of a shorter life expectancy than whites (72.2 years for blacks vs. 77.5 years for whites). Democrats have been running our inner-cities for the past 30 to 40 years, and blacks are still complaining about the same problems. More than $7 trillion dollars have been spent on poverty programs since Lyndon Johnson's War on Poverty with little, if any, impact on poverty. Diabolically, every election cycle, Democrats blame Republicans for the deplorable conditions in the inner-cities, then incite blacks to cast a protest vote against Republicans. In order to break the Democrats' stranglehold on the black vote and free black Americans from the Democrat Party's economic plantation, we must shed the light of truth on the Democrats. We must demonstrate that the Democrat Party policies of socialism and dependency on government handouts offer the pathway to poverty, while Republican Party principles of hard work, personal responsibility, getting a good education and ownership of homes and small businesses offer the pathway to prosperity.Source(s)http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=16500 Yeah I never understood why 90% of African American votes go Democrat?

Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it" George Wallace was a Democrat TOO!!!!George Corley Wallace Jr. (August 25, 1919 -- September 13, 1998), was a United States politician who was elected Governor of Alabama as a Democrat four times (1962, 1970, 1974 and 1982) and ran for U.S. President four times, running as a Democrat in 1964, 1972, and 1976, and as the American Independent Party candidate in 1968. During the Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s, he rose to fame as a symbol of bigotry.

Georgia did not switch until 2002, and some Southern states, including Louisiana, are still controlled by Democrats. Today, Democrats, in pursuit of their socialist agenda, are fighting to keep blacks poor, angry and voting for Democrats. Examples of how egregiously Democrats act to keep blacks in poverty are numerous. After wrongly convincing black Americans that a minimum wage increase was a good thing, the Democrats on August 3 kept their promise and killed the minimum wage bill passed by House Republicans on July 29. The blockage of the minimum wage bill was the second time in as many years that Democrats stuck a legislative finger in the eye of black Americans. Senate Democrats on April 1, 2004, blocked passage of a bill to renew the 1996 welfare reform law that was pushed by Republicans and vetoed twice by President Clinton before he finally signed it. Since the welfare reform law expired in September 2002, Congress had passed six extensions, and the latest expired on June 30, 2004. Opposed by the Democrats are school choice opportunity scholarships that would help black children get out of failing schools and Social Security reform, even though blacks on average lose $10,000 in the current system because of a shorter life expectancy than whites (72.2 years for blacks vs. 77.5 years for whites). Democrats have been running our inner-cities for the past 30 to 40 years, and blacks are still complaining about the same problems. More than $7 trillion dollars have been spent on poverty programs since Lyndon Johnson's War on Poverty with little, if any, impact on poverty. Diabolically, every election cycle, Democrats blame Republicans for the deplorable conditions in the inner-cities, then incite blacks to cast a protest vote against Republicans. In order to break the Democrats' stranglehold on the black vote and free black Americans from the Democrat Party's economic plantation, we must shed the light of truth on the Democrats. We must demonstrate that the Democrat Party policies of socialism and dependency on government handouts offer the pathway to poverty, while Republican Party principles of hard work, personal responsibility, getting a good education and ownership of homes and small businesses offer the pathway to prosperity.Source(s):http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=16500 Yeah I never understood why 90% of African American votes go Democrat?

Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it" moreResolved Question: Why do black people vote Democrats?Democrats started the kkk.Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican.?
Why Martin Luther King Was Republican It should come as no surprise that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican. In that era, almost all black Americans were Republicans. Why? From its founding in 1854 as the anti-slavery party until today, the Republican Party has championed freedom and civil rights for blacks. And as one pundit so succinctly stated, the Democrat Party is as it always has been, the party of the four S's: slavery, secession, segregation and now socialism. It was the Democrats who fought to keep blacks in slavery and passed the discriminatory Black Codes and Jim Crow laws. The Democrats started the Ku Klux Klan to lynch and terrorize blacks. The Democrats fought to prevent the passage of every civil rights law beginning with the civil rights laws of the 1860s, and continuing with the civil rights laws of the 1950s and 1960s. During the civil rights era of the 1960s, Dr. King was fighting the Democrats who stood in the school house doors, turned skin-burning fire hoses on blacks and let loose vicious dogs. It was Republican President Dwight Eisenhower who pushed to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1957 and sent troops to Arkansas to desegregate schools. President Eisenhower also appointed Chief Justice Earl Warren to the U.S. Supreme Court, which resulted in the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision ending school segregation. Much is made of Democrat President Harry Truman's issuing an Executive Order in 1948 to desegregate the military. Not mentioned is the fact that it was Eisenhower who actually took action to effectively end segregation in the military.Democrat President John F. Kennedy is lauded as a proponent of civil rights. However, Kennedy voted against the 1957 Civil Rights Act while he was a senator, as did Democrat Sen. Al Gore Sr. And after he became President, Kennedy was opposed to the 1963 March on Washington by Dr. King that was organized by A. Phillip Randolph, who was a black Republican. President Kennedy, through his brother Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy, had Dr. King wiretapped and investigated by the FBI on suspicion of being a Communist in order to undermine Dr. King. In March of 1968, while referring to Dr. King's leaving Memphis, Tenn., after riots broke out where a teenager was killed, Democrat Sen. Robert Byrd (W.Va.), a former member of the Ku Klux Klan, called Dr. King a "trouble-maker" who starts trouble, but runs like a coward after trouble is ignited. A few weeks later, Dr. King returned to Memphis and was assassinated on April 4, 1968. Given the circumstances of that era, it is understandable why Dr. King was a Republican. It was the Republicans who fought to free blacks from slavery and amended the Constitution to grant blacks freedom (13th Amendment), citizenship (14th Amendment) and the right to vote (15th Amendment). Republicans passed the civil rights laws of the 1860s, including the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and the Reconstruction Act of 1867 that was designed to establish a new government system in the Democrat-controlled South, one that was fair to blacks. Republicans also started the NAACP and affirmative action with Republican President Richard Nixon's 1969 Philadelphia Plan (crafted by black Republican Art Fletcher) that set the nation's fist goals and timetables. Although affirmative action now has been turned by the Democrats into an unfair quota system, affirmative action was begun by Nixon to counter the harm caused to blacks when Democrat President Woodrow Wilson in 1912 kicked all of the blacks out of federal government jobs. Few black Americans know that it was Republicans who founded the Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Unknown also is the fact that Republican Sen. Everett Dirksen from Illinois was key to the passage of civil rights legislation in 1957, 1960, 1964 and 1965. Not mentioned in recent media stories about extension of the 1965 Voting Rights Act is the fact that Dirksen wrote the language for the bill. Dirksen also crafted the language for the Civil Rights Act of 1968 which prohibited discrimination in housing. President Lyndon Johnson could not have achieved passage of civil rights legislation without the support of Republicans. Critics of Republican Sen. Barry Goldwater, who ran for President against Johnson in 1964, ignore the fact that Goldwater wanted to force the Democrats in the South to stop passing discriminatory laws and thus end the need to continuously enact federal civil rights legislation. Those who wrongly criticize Goldwater also ignore the fact that Johnson, in his 4,500 State of the Union Address delivered on Jan. 4, 1965, mentioned scores of topics for federal action, but only 35 words were devoted to civil rights. He did not mention one word about voting rights. Then in 1967, showing his anger with Dr. King's protest against the Vietnam War, Johnson referred to Dr. King as "that ****** preacher." Contrary to the false assertions by Democrats, the racist "Dixiecrats" did not all migrate to the Republican Party. "Dixiecrats" declared that they would rather vote for a "yellow dog" than vote for a Republican because the Republican Party was know as the party for blacks. Today, some of those "Dixiecrats" continue their political careers as Democrats, including Robert Byrd, who is well known for having been a "Keagle" in the Ku Klux Klan. Another former "Dixiecrat" is former Democrat Sen. Ernest Hollings, who put up the Confederate flag over the state Capitol when he was the governor of South Carolina. There was no public outcry when Democrat Sen. Christopher Dodd praised Byrd as someone who would have been "a great senator for any moment," including the Civil War. Yet Democrats denounced then-Senate GOP leader Trent Lott for his remarks about Sen. Strom Thurmond (R.-S.C.). Thurmond was never in the Ku Klux Klan and defended blacks against lynching and the discriminatory poll taxes imposed on blacks by Democrats. If Byrd and Thurmond were alive during the Civil War, and Byrd had his way, Thurmond would have been lynched. The 30-year odyssey of the South switching to the Republican Party began in the 1970s with President Richard Nixon's "Southern Strategy," which was an effort on the part of Nixon to get Christians in the South to stop voting for Democrats who did not share their values and were still discriminating against their fellow Christians who happened to be black.
