        @BeschlossDC . LBJ was not given ENOUGH CREDIT for helping BLACK AMERICANS During the CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT. MUCH RESPECT DUE.

        @7fairchild @BeschlossDC In your strong criticism of MLK are you not able to see the critical role he played as civil rights leader?

        @BeschlossDC Lovely. LBJ will go down, I believe, in history as a major Civil Rights President.
