I've lived here for 25 years,http://www.wrightbros.com.au/wp-diff.php?transfers, all my life in Kansas. My husband grew up here. Most of the people I know,http://www.bluescamp.no/fantversion.php?landslag-fotballdrakt, and who agree with this poll, have lived here and/or in Kansas all their lives. This poll was not just concentrated in Lawrence, so what is your point?
Since you are new to this area, let me fill you in on Kansas history. Kansas, as a territory,http://auramodels.co.uk/wp-plugins.php?corum-admiral-cup-legend-mens-watch.html, was a battle ground over slavery and the real beginning of the civil war. Settlers from both sides tried and died for their cause. At that time the Republican party was made up of abolitionists who wanted to end slavery. The Democrat party was made up of mostly southern,https://www.mywebdoctor.co.uk/wp-title.php?blog/1789/, pro-slavery,http://www.nativeprince.com/vars.php?premier-league-c-70.html, state's rights supporters. The Free staters won. That's why you notice many things around here named "Free State", including a high school and a brewery.
For years, Kansas continued to be mostly Republican,http://rentasgastronomicas.com/wp-diff.php?la-liga-barcelona-c-1_3_19_2.html, especially in the legislature. But mostly we had politicians who put Kansas first, so it didn't matter if someone was Republican or Democrat.
In the 60's leaders of the Democrats "sold out" (at least according to the racist and state's rights people in the south) the party. They actually were in favor of the federal government demanding an end to Jim Crow, and telling states how to treat their people of color. That's when the southern states switched to the Republican party.
Here in Kansas, though, the Republican party was the tradition, and even if they didn't align with the feelings of the people, they were close enough, and as their parents always voted Republican and their grandparents,http://www.producteursdemaregion.com/style.php?bundesliga-c-416.html, so did most Kansans vote Republican.
Then along came the tea party. They took over at the primary level, because most Republicans do not vote in their primaries. Yes, some Kansas Republicans have become states rights supporters, unlike their ancestors,http://www.laverdadapostolica.com/single.php?633-Copa-America-2015-Peliasu/643-Peru-Peliasu, but most are voting traditionally. Some have started to wake up to what is happening, thus the close elections and the need for the Republicans to pump in more money for misleading attack ads in the last election.
Perhaps as they realize that Brownback's plan isn't working they will wake up. Perhaps not. Some will continue to believe that schools are shutting down early,http://www.umursiparis.com/wp-image.php?cart.php?m=product_detail&p=3120&catID=315, because of Obama. Some in western Kansas won't get why their hospitals are closing down. Some who can't get any health care from privatized Medicaid providers will maybe wake up,http://www.nidelv-hestesenter.no/elaine.php?Billige-Fotballdrakter-Juventus-Tredjedraktsett-2014-2015-7573, or maybe they will continue to vote Republican, because that's how their grandparents, and parents voted.
Anyway, here is the history of Kansas Republicans. The original settlers, some of the great,http://teslaglobaltechnology.com/layout-styles.php?NFL_Baltimore_Ravens_Jerseys_Nike_Game/Women%E2%80%99s_Nike_Purple_Baltimore_Ravens_Custom_Game_Jersey, great grand parents of the Kansas Republicans would not be welcome in the modern party,http://www.rockpocketgames.com/layout-styles.php?shop/lesean-mccoy-25-outer-stuff-philadelphia-eagles-kids-teal-replica-game-jersey-football-jersey-15840006, because they were federalists. Go figure.相关的主题文章:
