        @realDonaldTrump couldn't hold LBJs shoes let alone fill them. Johnson was the badass Trump wants to be.

        LBJ ran for President against JFK as a southern conservative, but he was a great social liberal. Too bad about Vietnam.

        I was proud and frightened by LBJ as a child..but I grew to feel his goals were worthy of my respect less Vietnam. 68 was traumatic mostly.

        Why doesn't LBJ get more credit? The amount and significance of legislation he passed is truly awe inspiring.
