Oddly enough, since the civil rights act and the southern strategy these same klan members just as overwhelmingly support the GOP. Acknowledging one while ignoring the other makes you look myopic, uneducated and foolish. Perhaps you don't mind that?
A lot of the leaders of the Klan were business owners (from my memory of what I've read).
I think it would have been a natural (selfish) progression of any business owners to follow the party that favored them and not taking their money to put into programs for the less fortunate.
Animal nature at work again.
