Harry S Truman & LBJ
April 1964
(WH 6404_12 3128)
White House Telephone

President Lyndon Johnson invites President Harry S. Truman over for lunch and a couple of drinks. The conversation begins with Truman talking to the White House operator. After a pause, the two presidents speak.

Truman had called to let Johnson know that he had arrived back in Washington after representing Johnson and the United States at the funeral of the King of Greece.

  • LBJ did not kill JFK.

  • @mc0558 For sure! almost as if it was out of a movie or tv script. Gotta love LBJ's accent, and wheelin n dealing talk, and Truman's genuine 'reverence' he always showed to the Presidency.

  • Two of the all-time greats.

  • @MrTomRogan I wasn't giving advice. I made a statement, you questioned it, I sent you on your way. You're welcome though :). BUH BYE!

  • @WhyMeMoFo Okay. Thanks for your professional advice.

  • @MrTomRogan Once again, YOU ARE A LAY PERSON. And this is my field of expertise. I'm not trying to convince you of anything. Go find your own information, or don't. It matters not.

  • @WhyMeMoFo The problem with this statement is that any true professional would not suggest that his opinion is 'professional' and thus inherently supreme above others. Truly professional opinions are those vested in articulated fact and conclusive argument. You have offered neither.

  • @MrTomRogan This is YT, not an academic forum of my peers. You are a lay person. I've given my professional opinion already. I'm quite satisfied based upon my professional expertise in this field. Thanks!

  • @WhyMeMoFo Maybe because you are making allegations that have no substance in fact? Maybe because you spelt PenderGAst wrong?

  • @MrTomRogan What makes you think I haven't? What makes you think that I don't have a double Phd, one in History and one in American Studies and that I teach this subject? What makes you think that I may not know this topic FAR better than you? :)

  • @WhyMeMoFo No you haven't. You should read some Truman biographies before commenting.

  • @MrTomRogan It makes him a crook. I've made this point very clear already.
