    I'm not all that good at presidential history but I've been kinda soft for LBJ based on some background shit I've picked up and his quote during the Watts riots: "What did you expect? I don’t know why we’re surprised. When you put your foot on a man’s neck and hold him down for 300 years, and then you let him up, what’s he going to do? He’s going to knock your block off.” Then again he did start federally backed student loans which in hindsight was not a great move, not to mention everything Vietnam.
