If the speaker of the house and the vice president are from different parties and the sitting president dies could the new president and vice president be Democrat and Republican?

Not likely . If the president dies, the VP would become the president and he would nominate someone to be the new vice president. He would choose someone from his own party and the Congress would not likely reject a nominee just because he was from the same party as the president. If his nominee was rejected he could keep submitting names until he found someone Congress would agree to.

Are the Democrats for or against the Civil Rights Act?
Today ALL US parties and politicians are in favour of the Civil Rights act. But it was Democrat president Kennedy who had it drafted and Democat President Johnson who guided it through Congress. In all fairness, most Republicans voted in favour of the Civil Rights Act as well and a minority of Republican AND Democrat congressmen voted against it. But that had mostly to do with their Southern States background, not with the convictions of the Democrat and Republican parties as a whole.
