As the Republican party was founded in 1854, and the Democratic in 1792, 'old' relative to what? As it has 55 million members, and the Democratic party 72 million, 'grand' relative to what?

I don't know if I would consider West Virginia, which seceded from Virginia somewhat unconstitutionally, northern. (no state was to be formed out of the territory of another) Likewise former Klan member Bob Byrd.

And there's always David Duke too.

Please research progressive and eugenics and not on wikipedia. Please look at the Civil rights Act of 1964 and notice that 80% of the GOP voted in favor while only 60% of dems voted for the bill. Please look at which party started share cropping. Please look at what party controlled the mine workers in West Virgina and look at the govonor that order the workers shot down and if he was a dem or rep. Please note the MLK was a member of the GOP. Please note that the only lawsute currently in motion to end DOMA was filed by the Log Cabing Republicans.
You ignorantly state facts based on the state of the GOP 45 years ago.
