        It's never mentioned that McGovern backed RFK in '68. IMO it's no accident that it's never mentioned. The most important book on Earth right now is Joseph Palermo's book on the 1968 RFK Campaign. It is 1000% no fly zone. Because it shows what was happening BETWEEN social and poli

        It was no accident that George McGovern chose to run after RFK’s murder. They were close friends and they shared the same ideals/policies.

        What did LBJ think of McGovern’s candidacy? Did he have a preferred candidate in 68?

        My first vote in a presidential election was for McGovern. Never regretted it.

        LBJ looks like one of the "hippie" protesters who ended his presidency. If he had that length of hair in 1968 maybe he would have sought re-election!
