Started out racist, may not have been that bad in the end:
Also, he was one of the few who argued against the Iraq war before it started, so he deserves credit for that.In the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People's (NAACP)[66] Congressional Report Card for the 108th Congress (spanning the 2003–2004 congressional session), Byrd was awarded with an approval rating of 100 percent for favoring the NAACP's position in all 33 bills presented to the United States Senate regarding issues of their concern. Only 16 other senators received that approval rating in the session. In June 2005, Byrd proposed an additional $10 million in federal funding for the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Memorial in Washington, D.C., remarking that "With the passage of time, we have come to learn that his Dream was the American Dream, and few ever expressed it more eloquently."[67]Comment

Byrd was so old and a senator for so long that he was there when being racist wasn't looked at as bad as it is today. That being said, since a politician will do whatever it takes to stay in office, we don't have to wonder why he sided with the NAACP.Comment

and hey, since it was almost 50 years ago that kennedy killed that girl, we should forgive him for that too?Comment
