I like that you tried to throw in there that he was a democratic convention delegate in 1868. @KevinMKruse
This is WRONG. Nathan Bedford Forrest was a Confederate general & a delegate to the 1868 Democratic Convention. He was also a slave trader & the 1st Grand Wizard of the KKK. Tennessee should not have an official day (tomorrow) honoring him. Change the law.http://fox17.com/news/local/gov-lee-signs-proclamation-for-nathan-bedford-forrest-day-to-be-observed-in-tennessee …

I think that was to convince the diehards that he was *really* bad. "Fine, he was a slave owner, a Confederate and a Klansman. But a dirty Democrat?! That's where I draw the line."

Wut. ""Robert E. Lee Day" (Jan. 18) and "Confederate Decoration Day," also known as "Confederate Memorial Day" and the birthday of "Confederate President Jefferson Davis" (June 3) are also recognized in accordance with the state law."

Don't you love how Cruz tries to attach it to the Dems? The Southern Dems of a century ago turned into the GOP of today. Ted's party owns this.

It feels strange agreeing with Ted Cruz.

A broken Cruz is still right once in a while.
