What are the Democrats hiding? Watch the just-released trailer for Hillary’s America: The Secret History Of The Democratic Party:

Wow. Some serious bad history in this video. 

The Klan was never a Democratic institution and insinuating that it was is just ridiculous propaganda. The first incarnation of the KKK was founded by Confederate vets who opposed Reconstruction policies and yes, the majority of them were white southern Democrats. This does not mean that the KKK is part of a secret Democratic history, or that the Democratic Party as a whole supported the KKK movement. In fact, the Democratic Party split at the DNC in 1924 over the KKK, and formally denounced the organization. From that point on it was a mix of parties united by racism and today it is predominantly Republican. Shouldn't that matter more? Where's the terrible propaganda video that talks about how all the racists today find comfort with the GOP?

And even if that bad history was not so misleading...who cares? What relevance does the party's views from the 19th and early 20th century have to do with Hillary? Does Lincoln suspending habeas corpus mean I should have to worry that Republicans in power would institute martial law? Laughable.
