(11,464 posts)Losing was not an option back then
If it was, why did the space program loom so important.
Winning was being first on the moon.
The war issue, worked.
It got Nixon and the Bush's in office.
What is funny is that millions hated Lincoln
Millions hated FDR
Millions hated LBJ
Millions hate Obama
The greats all had haters in equal numbers
The Bush's win by hate.
If you think tearing down Hillary and President Obama will do anything but get Jeb Bush
then you don't realize-
Elizabeth Warren needs 100% of those Clinton/Obama voters were she, for some reason to be the nominee.
Otherwise, all she would attain is Dukakis/Mondale/McGovern/McCarthy status.
not one of them came close to winning.
LBJ was the single most liberal, progressive president of all time.
No one else came close.
Til now.
BTW, LBJ is the #2 or #3 best president of all time.
Social issues matter.
They are the one and only thing people can change.
the other stuff will always be there. It has been there since the T-Rex's fought each other.
And the cavemen fought each other.
And they will be there years later.
Because in real world, there are bad people and war will always be.
Look how many people died before FDR was able to find an excuse to do something.
Millions could have been saved if the war was entered a few years early
EVERYONE could have been saved if a drone was dropped on Hitler before the first died.
