It is the nature of the repuglican party to attract bigoted, small minded supporters. This party has been on the wrong side of history for the last two hundred years. history has shown that conservatives opposed emancipation, opposed women's right to vote, opposed civil rights, opposed child labor laws, opposed environmental protection laws, the list goes on. They have been and continue to be a party of narrow minded, bigoted individuals who never are able to see past their own failings and prejudices. They are a party of exclusion. Period. That is why history has always proven them to be wrong.
