IIRC, Johnson got that in 1964.
Considering the circumstances of the time (Civil Rights Act of 1964), I'm almost surprised he didn't do better than that.
I actually can agree with that... Considering both LBJ and HHH were very much into civil rights, it's surprising they didn't get 100%.
I'm not a huge LBJ fan, but it's one of the things I admire most of him.
LBJ was a virulent racist, the Civil Rights Act was a political stunt by him. The Republicans are the ones who really got the CRA started and completed.
He was responsible for its success, even if it was a political stunt. If Obama were elected & eliminated all gun control as a political stunt, wouldn't you be happy about it anyway?
