If Jonson had any respect for black people he would not have talked about them the way he did. He did what he did for them to get votes according to him.

The difference was that LBJ was at least canvassing for cvil rights...Reagan did nothing...black folks remember LBJ with fondness

Maybe they would look on him with less fondness if they knew how he talked about them and basically said he only helped them to get them to vote democrat.

...If he said that, MAYBE, anyway, he said that to get the more bicasually bigoted to accept his work with the CRA. A " masquerade ", so to speak.
