NOTE: With respect to the most dead-on Lyndon B. Johnson quote, which is sourced from a Ronald Kessler book, there is this Snopes entry that -- while being agnostic about that particular egregious meme -- nevertheless admits that even it would hardly be out of sync with LBJ's personality and agenda behind the public, career facade.

excerpts: There’s no question that Lyndon Johnson, despite championing the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964 and signing it into law, was also a sometime racist and notorious vulgarian who rarely shied away from using the N-word in private. For example, he reportedly referred to the Civil Rights Act of 1957 as the “_igger bill” in more than one private phone conversation with Senate colleagues. And he reportedly said upon appointing African-American judge Thurgood Marshall to the Supreme Court, “Son, when I appoint a _igger to the court, I want everyone to know he’s a _igger.”
[...] Circling back to the quote with which we started, it wouldn’t have been entirely out of character for LBJ to have said something like, “I’ll have those _iggers voting Democratic for 200 years,” but on balance we have to question its authenticity.
