there was a walkout at the 1948 democratic convention when northern democrats led by hubert humphreyrough a civil rights plank. in 1964, lbj made the ultimate choice, he had been pro jim crowe but his heart was somewhere else, when fate made him president, lbj made civil rights his priority, he did what no president had been willing or able to do. he broke the southern filibuster, got the vote through and signed it 50 years ago today, that shift that he predicted took shape right away. the republicans picked barry goldwater who joined the southern democrats in the filibuster. in the south, the solidly democratic south, it was a different story. he won five southern states outright. the same state where fdr had racked up 99% of the vote, goldwater got 58%. in alabama, he had 68%. in mississippi, in mississippi, he got 87% of the vote. and it's only gotten more hopeless for democrats in the south. especially the deep south in the 50 years since then, lbj had no idea just how right he was. that's hardball for now. have a safe and happy 4th of july weekend, all in with chris hayes starts

nixon never thought he was a petty politician like or a low-grade one like hubert humphrey or georgele, a statesman that the world would look up to for a long time to come. hence he wanted all that material to later write books about it and also to use it as a grist against his opponents, if somebody said you did this in your policy, he'd say i have a transcript of it, but of course the courts wouldn't let him keep the tapes, and it's really been his undoing. >> posterity cost him. douglas brinkley great to have you with us. of course be sure to watch "the sixties" tonight, 1968, tonight at 9:00 p.m. eastern and pacific only on cnn, watch it live, set your dvr. >>> coming up for us next, a man loses perhaps one of the most valuable possessions on earth, a red sox world series ring. that's bad. but who found it? well, in some ways that makes it even worse. the man has his ring back. that is "the good stuff." we'll explain coming up. you're driving along, having a perfectly nice day, when out of nowhere a pick-up truck slams into your brand new car. one second it wasn't there and the n
