Republican President Warren G. Harding hosted a Klan meeting in the White House!

In 1921 the KKK supposedly wasn't the terrorest organization it became in the 30's through the 60's. But that is still just an unblievable thing a president could possibly do.

The History Channel's KKK program is very good.

President Harding's supposed Klan meeting in the White House has been throroughly debunked by historians. The story was put out by the Democrats to deflect attention from the fact that the book "The Clansmen" -- inspiration for the movie "Birth of a Nation" and for the 1915 re-birth of the KKK had been written by one of Woodrow Wilson's college buddies, Thomas Dixon. Wilson even premiered the movie in the White House to promote it.
