8. Hey Hey LBJ How Many Kids Did You Kill Today?

The LBJ exhibit at the U of Texas in Austin is a great place to visit. His accomplishments are presented is a very impressive way. The Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, the war on Poverty, etc.

Unfortunately, LBJ's legacy is scorched by the war in Southeast Asia. Sure you might say that it was really Kennedy's war or the case might be made that it was Eisenhower's war. Nope, it was LBJ's war and it ruined his administration.

Does history repeat itself? Sadly, it does.
