@cspanofficial: March 31, 1968: President Lyndon Johnson announced that he would not seek reelection, surprising the nation and many of his own staff. “With America’s sons in the fields far away, with America’s future under challenge right here at home, with our hopes and the world’s hopes for peace in the balance every day, I do not believe that I should devote an hour or a day of my time to any personal partisan causes or to any duties other than the awesome duties of this office — the Presidency of your country,” he said. “Accordingly, I shall not seek, and I will not accept, the nomination of my party for another term as your President.” Before President Biden’s announcement Sunday, President Johnson was the most recent incumbent president with eligibility remaining not to seek reelection. President Johnson’s approval ratings declined amid public frustration with both the Vietnam War and domestic unrest. #lbj #lyndonbjohnson #ushistory #americanhistory #cspan

the superior speech writing is one thing, but this man and most others if prior eras knew how to deliver a speech with true gravitas. I have read all the Carp biographies and I'm still impressed.

Joe Biden joined the list of political legends. Democrats broke one-day fundraising records. Trump is shaking in his boots and he should be.

LBJ killed JFK, killed 50+ thousand in Vietnam and completely destroyed the black family unit. Let’s hear it for democracy.

he certainly is a liar but he is also a murderer conspiring to be president by murdering JFK and more young men and women in Vietnam and debt slavery for Americans

When I heard this in 1968, I thought it was a mistake that would give the White House to the Republicans. And so it did. I hope Joe Biden's decision will not do the same. Vote Blue, no matter who.
