Not commenting on his policies and their effectiveness/ineffectiveness, but he was truly one of the greatest politicians in American history. Whether you liked him or loathed him, I think we can all agree he was a fascinating figure.

He is the closest thing to real life grown up Eric Cartman

Doubt that - unless you are talking about the creative, theatrical process.

I lived thru the LBJ era. He is still the worst POTUS in history - deliberately and knowingly starting the USA on the path to 3rd world status - but he did achieve his goal of "securing the n-vote for 200 years."

Obama is the direct product of his dream. And LBJ himself would have hated what he created. He was racist to the core. All he wanted was a political win.

This is his lasting legacy and is the source of all the racial division we have today. Blacks should hate him.

he was also a murderer

Interesting.

My grandfather (born in 1870 and died in 1962 before LBJ became POTUS) absolutely hated the man. I grew up being taught that LBJ was the worst human alive, and that yes, he was a murderer. My grandfather claimed that his early political success were accomplished by a series of murders.

And my grandfather was a rock solid Democrat - as was almost every other person in the south in the first half of the last century. The excesses of Reconstruction was very fresh on their minds at that time.
