Well there's the fact that LBJ was not an FF in any sense of the word.

Civil Rights Act, bro?

Other than that yeah he's pretty horrible.

The CRA was less the result of conscious action by LBJ than it was action on the streets by activists who risked their lives to see it become a reality. Any person in office who didn't sign off on that risked political suicide, which is something I think LBJ readily understood.

Ugh, this is also true.

I guess even George Wallace would've signed it if he was elected in 1960.
