Lyndon Johnson actually said...

"Too many of our fellow citizens are still restrained by a straitjacket that was strapped upon them by the mere accident of their birth."

"If race, skin color, religious beliefs, sex, or national origin prevent anyone from reaching the heights, then we have all wasted a human being."

"I want to talk to you about a goal of this Government that is very close to my heart."

"The brilliant Solicitor General of the United States is a Negro, the first to hold this high office."
