Sorry Your time frames of history are out of whack. Civil war was in the 1865 decade. AND The Dixiecrats were formed in 1948. Politicians of the ages 30 to 40 in the 1865 era would have to live to the ages of 113 to 123 years old to join the Dixiecrats. Doubtful that any survived.
Also, don't forget one of the most famous KKK leaders and Dem politician Robert Byrd who organized and served as a Ku Klux Klan leader in the 1940's. Whereas the famous Repub Prez Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: You are speaking of the Dixicrats. Those that stayed in politics eventually converted to the Republican Party.
