Wow! I was googling to find a pix of LBJ with long hair & found an old DU thread from 2004 [View all]

and it goes without saying, I love LBJ (and think he indeed is #3 on the all time list).
Wish we had LBJ now in the senate as majority leader ramming everything through.
Lincoln=FDR=LBJ=OBAMA=CARTER
the five singular greats are one.(IMHO)

I don't include JFK because sad to say we were not given the time needed to judge what # he would be.

This is a great thread from June 2004
Because it is an archieved one, there are no photos in the links in this thread
