With either FDR or LBJ, I would have really liked to have seen a universal healthcare system established under either the New Deal or the Great Society. If there was ever an opportunity to establish a Medicare-type system for the entire population, it would have been under one their Presidencies. At the least, it would have been nice to have FDR start something during his term (perhaps Medicare and Medicaid) that could've possibly been fully expanded to everyone by the time LBJ took office. If Medicare and Medicaid had been established 30 years earlier, I think full universal healthcare would have been accomplished decades ago.
