The story of the Democrats (available in its entirety free see details below) continues by exposing how Democrat James Buchanan helped insure America would be plunged into a Civil War and the evidence that he was our first Gay president. James Buchanan 1857 to 1861
Among the pre-Civil War Democrat Presidents, perhaps the worst and most disastrous to America was James Buchanan, a Pennsylvanian who is widely thought of as America’s first gay President. [25]

Dems answer to that is they say that the racists in the Dem party fled to the GOP in the 1960s to protest the civil rights and voting rights acts.
George W believed the man rises to the challenge. That was his expectation for O. There must first be a desire to serve and humility in the face of the office. W had this in abundance. O not so much.
