I think you’re way late re: internal consensus. FDR set the model for democrats. It was apparent thereafter in every presidential election. Kennedy and Nixon, for example. The Dixiecrats dissolved in 1948.
There were still staunch Democrat segregationsts well into the early 70s, famously Wallace and Maddox. Wallace was Alabama governor until '68 and Maddox Georgia governor until '71.
Yeah, I suppose. Hard to believe him and RFK were in the same party. I guess I haven’t thought much about what that means, if anything. At any rate, the path to change the DNC is from within, as Bernie did.
