Truly an interesting presidency to study. Came to the office via assassination and had some of the biggest internal and external fights this country has ever seen... Taking place at the same time.

It does look like it will be more internally focused, with some mentions of Vietnam. Will be interesting to see how that works.

Cranston is one of those rare actors who you know is not going to make something not worth watching. Will have to check this out.

President LBJ: "I’ll have those ******s voting Democratic for the next 200 years" -



I wonder if they'll include that quote?


Also, Jay Roach was as ham handed and biased as it can get with Game Change & Recount. I doubt that'll change much with this one.

Lyndon Johnson
Easily the most evil President in US History.

Laughed gleefully as he allowed a war become politicized and unwinnable, and washed his body in the blood of 50,000 US soldiers.

Signed the Civil Rights Act?

And the Vietnam War really picked up and went to hell then too. Not a good thing, but definitely important to study.

I'm no history buff but I know he was a character to the say the least and he was named prez after Kennedy took a bullet

There was a lot happening at that time

I don't know anymore than most people about LBJ but I'd like to see that.

Can't believe they picked this d-bag of a president to do something on. Kept us in nam to profit off of the war and our soldiers lives. Love Cranston but a god awful president wish thydve picked someone els.

Or show him making cabinet members swim nude in the white house pool while he makes fun of the size of their junk.

Or pissing on a Secret service agent's leg.

Or leaving the stall door open while takes a shite.

Or using the n word in front of Dr. King

Or hitting on every moderately attractive woman that crosses his path

This could be awesome
