Who are the elderly members of Congress behind him?
-
That was John W. McCormack (D-MA), Speaker of the House, and Carl Hayden (D-AZ), president pro tempore of the Senate. Hayden was actually elected to the House in 1911, taking office when Arizona became a state in Feb. 1912. McCormack had only been in Congress since 1928.

@BeschlossDC@JRBoh Perfect time to recall that War on Poverty, combined with broad-based economic growth, worked. Over decade, poverty rate cut in half, enabling 16 million in poverty to climb into middle class. Even many liberals now buy Reagan myth it failed. History matters.Thanks.

Yup. Look at us now. Same problems. Trillions in debt. Inflation adjusted income flat since then. What we need - more government. Not.

If only Goldwater had won in '64, we wouldn't be suffering the consequences of LBJ's welfare state today.

@BeschlossDC@JRBoh Only reason U.S poverty skyrocketed starting in 80s is we replaced anti-poverty policies of proven success with a war against people in poverty.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

what a difference 53 years...and a Democrat president...can make. Actually caring about & doing something for the people who elected him.
