One of the most ridiculous theories ever put forth. Also full of falsehoodsJFK did not have the passion for Civil Rights that LBJ had.Point stands-without LBJ, NO civil rightsWhat they taught you was revised white history. LBJ was the president that signed the civil rights bill and he worked the congress making deals to get the votes.
He did sign it.
Sort of like Clinton was forced to sign welfare reform or lose politically.
The rest is false
For 20 years he voted against every civil rights bill, calling them a sham.
Every Republican voted for the bill, Johnson signed it and flat out told the Republicans that this would cause the negroes to vote Democrat for 100 years, cause he knew that y'all weren't sophisticated enough to understand.
Barack Hussein even spoke about that .
Maybe , maybe not. Maybe LBJ saw the writing on the wall that civil rights was inevitable and he decided to get the liberals on the right side of the issue. Remember, the Dems were united against civil rights in the 1950's, the Kennedy Family opposed Ike's Civil Rights act of 1957. The libs hated Ike for integrating the schools in Little Rock and elsewhere.
LBJ could have easily sat on Civil Rights telling blacks what they had always been told.....Be patient, your time will come
LBJ rammed civil rights through, twisted arms, begged and threatened. But it got done
Actually, LBJ was a racist son of a bitch, but he figured out a scheme to get Blacks to vote Democrat with his massive welfare entitlements as well as support for the Civil Rights Act. He addressed the NAACP and told the throng of black leaders "I've have you n*****'s voting Democrat for a hundred generations.
Blacks were already voting Democratic. They had been since FDR
In pushing Civil Rights legislation, LBJ lost the south for Democrats. Much bigger loss of votes than could be obtained from blacks
That “I’ll have those n****s voting Democrat quote is fake and totally unsupported
