"More than anything else, “All the Way” is about the way Johnson pushed for civil rights legislation in 1964. Or to put that in modern parlance, crammed it down our throats, knowing full well that his party would lose the South for a generation as a result.
LBJ is so tough to figure that even after the show’s initial Boston run last fall, Cranston says, he was still trying to nail down why LBJ fought so hard for civil rights. Was it just to establish his legacy, or was he compelled by conscience? Had he earlier withheld his true feelings about social justice for political reasons, or had he “evolved,’’ as the current president says he has done on gay rights?"
