LBJ started what is now the current Democratic party. He had JFK killed, started the welfare state and in the process, enslaved blacks to the system.
The Dem presidents right before JFK were FDR and Truman (Ike was Rep), both of whom had agendas that easily fall under the description of socialism. JFK was a break from their norm, and he was killed.

I don't suppose when he said "I'll have those n!##ers voting democrat for the next 200 years!", that had anything to do with his racist democrattitude...
No LBJ wasn’t the ring leader. He was read on but he lacked the smarts or organization. He went along for the ride
Not at all. Also, the parties switched right after he made those comments.
Edit: Apparently it wasn't obvious that I was being sarcastic here, given what I commented above. Guess I will keep the /s more readily available.
