@Suprkit Well, you are correct they did hate each other but RFK worked hard to see that his bill would be passed just as LBJ did. Instead of handing RFK a pen and saying good job, LBJ just started handing him pens and told him to give them to members of the Justice Dept. I thought that was a cold slap in the face.

@TheFrogger15 I don't understand how that's embarrassing. Also, you have to remember that they (President Johnson and Robert Kennedy) hated one another. I guess they just can't hide it.

@Suprkit LBJ gave RFK six pens to embarass him. You see he also gives that racist J. Edjar Hoover a pen & told him he deserved it.

Dr. King was a beautiful man.

Many of those men died within the next ten years:RFK,MLK,LBJ,Dirkskin etc

You are right. Johnson did a lot of great things for the country and dosn't get enough credit for it.

What a great Presient.He is the greatest legislator in this nation's history.For example, he was able to sign 200 bills during a window of I believe 2 years or so. It was I believe from a span of 1964 through 1966
before the Vietnam conflict grew and the Republicans gained back the Congress from '66 through the end of his Presidency.Thank You for posting this interesting and remarkable moment."Lincoln made them free;Johnson made them equal."
