Johnson restates his offer to the North Vietnamese to begin talks for making peace, and he discusses the economic problems and solutions in the United States. After urging both Congress and Americans to end their divisions, the President announces his decision not to seek reelection so that he may focus on executing his presidential duties instead of partisan politics.

@MrGNR1990 Johnson was a racist and the worst president the United States ever had.
-
@Xenu You are wrong there IMO. He was horrible domestically. LBJ's "Great Society" lit the fuse of the debt bomb we are facing today. All about $16 trill in debt...but the bigger danger is $100 T in unfunded obligations. A lot of which LBJ "Obligated" us to for dem votes. He wasn't concerned about equal rights...he was a racist. He wanted votes. His "great society" DESTROYED the black community. His base-line budgeting made it impossible to balance the budget without lying. He was awful.

Lyndon B Johnson is a traitor to America.
He ordered the murders of us servicemen with the help of israel
youtube USS Liberty - these sailors are still seeking justice for being stabbed in the back by Johnson - they are still being ignored.
Lyndon B Johnson got the Israeli military to attack a US Naval vessel, to use it as a pretext to go to war with Egypt and blame it on them, it was a false flag
Johnson killed American Servicemen. Go research, it's all true.

LBJ is the reason that this country is in the shape that it's in today. He is an American Judas if their ever was one.
-
On domestic issues LBJ was by far our greatest post-war president. Internationally, he was a war criminal and genocidal imperialist.

@durblepurpjewglooble great story. Thanks for sharing.

The bigger they were the harder they fell. LBJ's ambitions both personal & political knew no bounds. A New Dealer who felt ordained to take it to the next level. I read everything I can on this complex man & never can conclude as to what he really was. Almost 50 years later & it may be yet too soon to see if his legacy has truly damaged this nation beyond repair.

@wangsta25 You mean medicare, the broke system that is one of our nation's biggest burdens right now to maintain and kills the whole point of choice in the healthcare system for seniors that we have to pay into our whole lives for nothing? Yeah, real swell of him to "give" this to us.

@pwnurnoobazz Yes, a very terrible man for giving u healthcare as an old hag through Medicare

The two top comments are completely wrong. Lyndon Johnson wasn't a bad person. Unlike you, he couldn't see how it would turn out in the end. JFK set up the soldiers, ready for war. The generals pressured Johnson more than you can imagine to go to war. The Communist threat was so intense. In that situation there wasn't much else he could do. He wasn't the cause of the war though. It's all so easy when you know what happens, he didn't have that luxury.
