No....you have to look at racist LBJ vs. Politician LBJ who wanted to get elected and for his political party to have power so he had to accept that blacks were going to be able to vote...considering he voted against every Civil Rights and the anti-lynching laws until the very lasts one....
A racist LBJ could have easily squashed the legislation or watered it down
Instead he twisted arms and made deals to get it passed
LBJ voted against Civil Rights when he was a Senator from Texas……his constituents demanded it
