      @Error is Back ..Biden can be quoted as the most conservative Democrat in the field, but why are we choosing to deflect towards political parties and figureheads when nothing in the original post or my response to it had any context to do with political parties or figureheads. You wanna go there? I’ll be yer huckleberry..
      Abe Lincoln was a liberal republican as the kkk began under conservative Democrats later known as “Dixiecrats”.
      It matters not if you’re a republican this or a democrat that, but if you’re a conservative this or a liberal that.
      The political parties are proxies not beholden to any means. Abe wasn’t shot over slavery, but so that the US Capital Establishment could retain two party dominion. There hasn’t been a viable 3rd party since.
