    A week after Bloody Sunday in Selma, LBJ had Alabama Gov. George Wallace to White House and, in private, asked him if he wanted his epitaph to be “He Hated” or “He Built”—tomorrow 1965 : #Gettypic.twitter.com/MOOkjQi5BH

        I've learned more American political history from your tweets than I did thru elite NYC private school and ivy league educations (of course, I may not have been paying full attention back then but I digress) - thank you!

        Hate or Build? Good question for all of us. Great question for our politicians. -- Maggie

        Lyndon had the World in the palm of his hand and threw it all away with his July, 1965 Vietnam Escalation and his trail of lies and deceit, the damage he did to this country is still felt today.

        So I guess 45’s epitaph will read: He Built Hate. Very apt.

        Johnson was a pragmatist but in a good way.

        LBJ is an incredibly interesting enigma in history. At the same time he is pushing so many excellent social reforms, he was getting us deeper and deeper into Vietnam while being greatly less than honest with the Americans people about situation.

        I watched Trumps rally last night and thought for a moment that I had time traveled back to the 1960’s with the revolting racial remarks regarding Rep. Maxine Waters. Sickening !
