Well, that's easy. Johnson was the tool put in place to carry-out the Hoover/Warren Commission cover-up. He didn't blackmail himself into the vice presidency for no reason. He was the shadow government's hedge against a Kennedy upset. In a two party race it isn't very difficult for this black underground to hedge their bets. Johnson was a ringer. But the Johnson dirt is in no way evidence enough to cancel-out all the more than screamingly-obvious real "masterminds" above and beyond Johnson. Stopping short at Johnson and bringing the public's attention to him as a "mastermind" is such an infernal travesty that it almost qualifies as a cover-up in itself.
The reason southern man Johnson was so forthright about civil rights legislation was because it was a cost-free prize given to the America public by the murderers of Kennedy in return for their gigantic pay-off. They got everything they wanted - including getting away with it - so why not spread the spoils in order to placate the public? They had plenty after JFK's democratic resistance was eliminated.
