11. If Democrats are so bad

Why do many groups embrace us?

Throughout history we have had countless Presidents who during their leadership have spoken and done some really awful things but are still considered good leaders. Woodrow Wilson would be among them. Thomas Jefferson owned slaves for heavens sake and though Lincoln freed the slaves, he really did not want them to remain in the United States.

For much of his career, Lincoln believed that colonization—or the idea that a majority of the African American population should leave the United States and settle in Africa or Central America—was the best way to confront the problem of slavery. His two great political heroes, Henry Clay and Thomas Jefferson, had both favored colonization; both were enslavers who took issue with aspects of slavery but saw no way that Black and white people could live together peaceably.
