72. Again, the radicals only gave a shit about their power

There were VERY VERY few, that actually cared about blacks. Then they all got tired of "black issues" and allowed the troops to be pulled out of the south so that Hayes could become president. I'm not saying that Andrew Johnson was a great president by any means and certainly wasn't pro civil rights, but I don't think that he's nearly as bad as the likes of Woodrow Wilson, Jackson, or Van Buren, none of which were pro civil rights.
