As for Byrd, look at this quote from when he was a Senator at the age of 48.
"There will never be a Negro on the US Supreme Court, I can guarantee you that. Mr. Marshall holds views with our dangerous to this nation and our posterity. I know a group of Senators, who, like myself...will hold up his confirmation vote for months if we have to."
--Senator Robert C. Byrd, June 1967
Yes, a major mistake. SOOOOOORrry. Mea culpa indeed Sidd.
