Your lack of intelligence is showing. The facts do not support your claim. Perhaps you may wish to think a little more before you post.

Hillary tried the same approach, making false claims about Republicans: How did that work out for you?

Some notable Republican progress to help minorities:

Civil Rights Act of 1960: "Eisenhower signed the GOP’s 1960 Civil Rights Act after it survived a five-day, five-hour filibuster by 18 Senate Democrats."

Desegregating schools (1957): Dwight Eisenhower "deployed the 82nd Airborne Division to desegregate Little Rock’s government schools over the strenuous resistance of Governor Orval Faubus (D., Ark.)."

Emancipation Proclamation (1863): The first Republican President, Abraham Lincoln, issued an order freeing all slaves in the confederacy.

The First Asian-American U.S. Senator (1959): The first Asian-American senator, Republican Hiram Fong, was elected in Hawaii.
