Wait, is this April Fools Day? First, CNN suspended a reporter for saying something liberal; then, the Pope said Christmas was a charade; and now, VOX—VOX!—is admitting that the first progressive Democrat president was a racist, KKK loving, “ignorant negro” hating bastard. In VOX’s words:
He was a racist by current standards, and he was a racist by the standards of the 1910s, a period widely acknowledged by historians as the “nadir” of post–Civil War race relations in the United States.

the witch-hunt is more about protecting themselves from similar accusations.
Woodrow Wilson has always been a Republican!
The proof is that he supported eugenics, the idea of getting ride of the people who made cultural-marx.... liberalism possible!
Are we living in Bizarro World?
And Quagmire and company will do everything in their power to beat Wilson as the most racist.
One day Harry Reid's day will come , if the same measure is used .
I'm still waiting for Robert Byrd's day .
It is safe to come out of the Progressive closet now with Obama entrenched in the Presidency and him being so open about his hatred of the USA and its citizens.
Every day is April Fools Day for the lame stream media. It only took them 80 years to tell the truth about good old Woodrow?
Pfft. They're just toeing the current Party Line.
methinks, too.
i'm sure all the reformed, secular half-Buddhists at the ACLU will come up with something to save his legacy over...
Wilson's racism was bad enough, but when you throw in his Progressive legacy - Federal Reserve, income tax, etc. - you have one of the worst Presidents ever.
Unfortunately, Wilson is moving up quickly from his spot on the bottom of the POTUS ranking. His spot was taken by LBJ, who was eclipsed by Bubba, who was eclipsed by Jimma, and now this S4B in the white mosque. I wonder howinell this country has survived? Hillary should be able to completely put it under.
He is the worst President the other side of WWII. Hoover was terrible but Wilson really did us in as a nation. We are truly still feeling the ill effects of his time in office incredibly. Obama is the worst President this side of WWII... too soon to say this side of 9/11 (which in Obama's case is true so far), but that marker should be put into consideration a few more Presidents in the future.
Hey! you're back!
yep dont know what happened...
Twilight Zone thing.
Absolutely. And lest we forget...Killary claimed to be a Wilsonian Progressive in 2008.
I did some digging on Wilson a few years ago, and the man was despicable. The KKK was virtually decimated by the Republicans after the Civil War, and Wilson, practically single-handedly, brought it back to life by promoting the film Birth of a Nation. Then there's the whole eugenics scourge, which he supported, that promised to rid the world of "weeds" (read: blacks).
And along with the Fed and IRS, you can also blame him for the United Nations. His League of Nations bellied up, but that was the precursor of the UN. AND...it could be argued that he was the reason Hitler came to power, because he refused to use America's leverage to cut back on the Draconian Versailles Treaty. Yeah, he was a real prince, this guy. And STILL is an icon in the Democrat party. The Godfather of the Progressive movement. If someone were smart, they'd hang THAT albatross around Killary's fat neck.
Blind MSM squirrels finding a few nuts!
