As a kid, I thought he was elderly, but only 64 when passed away.

Smoking and drinking really aged him.

And the presidency! But wow did he look old at 64 and even prior.

If not for Vietnam, LBJ would have been a great President. That simple assertion - he would not be the first president to lose a war - was the end of the Great Society because of the cost of the war. Straight Shakespearean tragedy.

Wasn't LBJ still smoking by this point?

He started up again. He quit as POTUS but on the flight back to Texas he lit up. His daughter took the cigarette and he grabbed it back and said something along the lines of men in his family don't live long.

Who was worst -- LBJ, Carter, or Obama? The case can be made for each.

Obama reset the standard for worst.

Really? So 80+ months of job growth, far beyond Bush, lowest unemployment in 10yrs, killed bin laden & others, saved auto ind & million jobs, equal pay law, lowered deficit by 2/3, more. Historians already rate Obama as 12th. U hate him, we get it, but thats just uninformed.
