I think you are confusing the right wing with the Democratic Party, proud inventors of the Klan Bake.

And "Republican" literally means the party of strong central government. They went to war to crush "states rights," they gave America the draft and the personal income tax, Sherman's March, and burned Atlanta.
1924 was the year when the Klan started swinging towards the GOP because the Klan went berserk after the Democrat's nomination of Al Smith, a Catholic. The nomination of Smith was a major defeat to the Klan, and their loss of power helped create the coalition that would elect FDR in 1932.
But nice white supremacist talking point about how "liberals are the real racists." Want to explain why people voted for Obama, and can you do it without using a white supremacist talking point? I'm kind of guessing you can't.
