But how about this: In 1960 he ran on a national platform which wanted to end the depletion allowance. But in Texas he supported a platform which called for continuing the depletion allowance. Nationally, Lyndon was for sit-in demonstrations. In Texas he wanted them stopped by the law so private property would be protected. To the Northern folks he said he was for school desegregation. In Texas he ran on a platform which said it should be left up to local school authorities. In the North he asked for more power for the federal boys.
