JFK or LBJ?

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

I say LBJ, he simply got more things done, but his legacy is still the Vietnam War and the failed suppreme crt nominee and cost us a true progressive as Chief Justice there were way more qualified Dems to fill that vacancy on, he could of did what Nixon, Warren and Truman did, go outside the Scrt to pick his nominee. Although Marshall would have won my vote.

LBJ obvious due the Civil Rights passage and Marshall on the Supreme Crt. If Kennedy had been prez under a different time when the Vietnam war was waging and he rode the Kennedy antiwar movement to the WH like his brother RFK almost did he would of been the better of the two.

Once the Voting Rights Act was passed, Johnson knew he would lose the South and he felt his duty was to give Blacks equal representation and Destroy the Communist in the Cold War. Sometimes you have do what's best for your country rather than do whats best for your party and both cost the Dems 1968 barring a RFK revival.

The Brown V Board of Kansas decision forced concervative dixiecrats like Thomas Clark and Stanley F Reed to accept Blacks as equals and set the stage for Johnson to step up.
