Are the Democrats for or against the Civil Rights Act?
Today ALL US parties and politicians are in favour of the Civil Rights act. But it was Democrat president Kennedy who had it drafted and Democat President Johnson who guided it through Congress. In all fairness, most Republicans voted in favour of the Civil Rights Act as well and a minority of Republican AND Democrat congressmen voted against it. But that had mostly to do with their Southern States background, not with the convictions of the Democrat and Republican parties as a whole.
Why did some of the southern states vote for Barry Goldwater?
The campaign for the US Presidency in 1964 was between Democrat President Lyndon Johnson and Republican candidate Senator Barry Goldwater. Although the South had been traditionally a Democrat stronghold for decades after the US Civil War, it also had a large part of the voting population leaning to the conservative side of American politics. To many Southerners, the conservatism of Barry Goldwater seemed more in line with their ideas than did the more liberal President Johnson. So even though Johnson was a Texan, he did not command the full support of some Southern States who voted for the more conservative Goldwater.
