        Voting Rights Act led to huge increase in black voter registration. That’s why Republicans felt threatened by itpic.twitter.com/FJXSs4h1Nf

        We have a lot to be thankful to LBJ for. He put the country before his party and the Ds paid dearly for it.

        It's the reason we lost the South. Still, worth it.
