On June 4, 2004, while other members of Congress honored the 40th anniversary of the historic act, Paul stood on the floor of the House of Representatives and delivered a diatribe against integration, claiming it violated the Constitution “while diminishing individual freedoms.”

“The Civil Rights Act of 1964 not only violated the Constitution and reduced individual liberty; it also failed to achieve its stated goals of promoting racial harmony and a color-blind society,” Paul declared.

Not a surprising statement from a man who is touted on white supremacist web sites as their candidate for President.

He won't, and he's wrong about this lankmark legislation. One thing is for sure though; were he to be elected, much of his agenda would be DOA when it hit Congress or the high court.

As has been stated before, the entire ideology - the main reason that the majority of so called conservatives advocate for a "limited govt" is because of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Any other sort of ideological baggage that comes with this movement is designed to cover this fact up or to code the overt racial segregationist ideology that migrated into the GOP as part of Nixon's embrace of the old Dixiecrats who imported their segregationist ideology into the Republican party.

Many Republican- Conservative Small Government Positions Since Nixon Are Really Veiled Racist Policies

...pretty much all the Republican- conservative positions since Nixon are really veiled racist policies and that small govt is really code word for weakining the federal govt so it can't enforce civil rights or not paying welfare to "coloreds" even though most people on welfare and food stamps are whites (but the false myth in the racist right wing mind is that its the blacks who are living well on welfare having kids out of wedlock that whites have to pay for the mythical black welfare queen).

Bob Herbert, a New York Times columnist, reported a 1981 interview with Lee Atwater, published in Southern Politics in the 1990s by Prof. Alexander P. Lamis, in which Lee Atwater discussed politics in the South: You start out in 1954 by saying, "Nigger, nigger, nigger." By 1968 you can't say "nigger"— that hurts you. Backfires. So you say stuff like forced busing, states' rights and all that stuff. You're getting so abstract now [that] you're talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you're talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is [that] blacks get hurt worse than whites. And subconsciously maybe that is part of it. I'm not saying that. But I'm saying that if it is getting that abstract, and that coded, that we are doing away with the racial problem one way or the other. You follow me—because obviously sitting around saying, "We want to cut this," is much more abstract than even the busing thing, and a hell of a lot more abstract than "Nigger, nigger".

Herbert wrote in the same column, "The truth is that there was very little that was subconscious about the G.O.P.'s relentless appeal to racist whites. Tired of losing elections, it saw an opportunity to renew itself by opening its arms wide to white voters who could never forgive the Democratic Party for its support of civil rights and voting rights for blacks."
