Yes, LBJ-former head of Senate Democrats and a southerner was able to push the Civil Rights Act through and I give him credit for it.
But LBJ and Lady Bird were far from the Camelot image and inspiration of JFK and Jackie. They did not inspire the youth of America.
I met LBJ and Lady Bird in 1962 when JFK sent them to an event in New Haven. He was a boring and unpolished speaker
BTW>I have met 8 US Presidents (some before , JFK&LBJ, Clinton and one after:Truman).
