[@Thetimecapsuletx]

Lamont, you’re historically hysterical! 😂 I’ve been to the ranch and took the tour. I found it funny that he would watch three TVs, one for each network during the news. If there was something said that he didn’t like, he would call them and make them change the story. I guess it was the first operation Mockingbird tried. Great video!

[@FascinatingGraveyard]

Wish I had read that :(

[@Thetimecapsuletx]

@@FascinatingGraveyard You had to take the tour through the ranch house where he lived, to get that info. I don’t know if you could read that anywhere or it would be hard to find. The original TVs were still in the house by the dining room table. He sure was a weird character.

[@audiriley2663]

@@FascinatingGraveyard could you do a video on n Kennedy's sister. The one who had botched surgery? She lived for years in a nursing home in WISCONSIN with no visitors until she passed in the last 15 years.

I remember LBJ aka President Johnson.

[@joleahnowicki7058]

Hi Lamont 👍thanks for covering this. Studied archives, read multiple memoirs. When she was asked by Lady Bird if she wanted to change her outfit she replied “No, I want them to see what they did to my husband”. There is a photo of LBJ on Air Force One looking back over his shoulder to US Rep Albert Thomas (D-TX) and he receives a wink and smirk from him in some kind of confirmation. Whatever it is was disrespectful and just plain ugly in light of our poor First Lady standing right next to him in mourning.

[@bicknell67]

Jackie Kennedy truly was a pillar of strength.

[@lesleamiller2814]

Another fact Lamont!! My sister in law's Aunt painted the portrait of Lady Byrd Johnson that hung in the White House.

[@Orpilorp]

Hey! I love your informative video. I've never really been a fan of LBJ. I felt he was a rough man. I remember seeing a picture of him when I was a child, picking up his Beagle dogs by their ears. That sealed the deal for me. Those cement squares that he had his guests sign was a really clever idea. I always admired Lady bird. She seemed like a real lady, and they had 2 beautiful daughters. His worse deed was to keep the Vietnam War going so long. My cousin suffered from PTSD because of his time in the war and never got over it.

[@kathyarmstrong3784]

He was behind assassination of JFK.

[@Muskogee]

The Klan began to hate him because of what he did for black people in the 1960s. (He freed black people) He got a bad reputation about Vietnam. It's a documentary out about Nixon. I suggest you go look it up. LBJ wanted to end the war. Nixon dirty ass was committing treason behind his back to keep the war going.

[@michele2855]

LBJ’s gravestone is very simple for a president. Thanks for the tour Lamont

[@markwebster5749]

Yeh I was expecting something more extravagant 🤦‍♂️

[@douglasmasone7144]

Unknown fact. He dropped out of College and went to San Francisco to study art. He befriended a little known writer at that time named John Steinbeck and among others became somewhat of a Bohemian before returning to Texas to finish college. When the son of John Steinbeck got drafted and was about to be sent to Vietnam, LBJ personally intervened and that soldier was sent elsewhere.

[@bnspossum]

Please advise how you know this, if you would be so kind. The best authority I ever read on the subject is Robert A. Caro, and he starts his first of four volumes going back at least 100 years before Johnson’s birth in 1908. He’s presently working on the fifth volume, at 87 - and has been working on it since 2012 when volume four came out. The series is called “The Years of Lyndon Johnson” and tells not only about Johnson, but the history of what was taking place during his lifetime.

[@billythekidder7182]

Can’t be unknown if you know it.

[@mychinapig]

My ex stayed put of Vietnam too his mother was big in Taney county. No one wanted to go and so many young southern black men died because of the draft of poor men not in college

[@williamrowlett740]

Interesting thing that my grandmother told me. My Dad was born in 1929 and grew up in Kansas. By 1954, he moved to Dallas. In the late 1950's, Grandmother came to Dallas to visit her son and Dad was at that time a young businessman in Dallas. He picks her up at Dallas Love Field airport and LBJ was there. She tells Dad, "do you know who that is? He plans to be the next President." Dad, who really cared not much for politics at the time said, "yeah. So what. Let's get your luggage."

[@FascinatingGraveyard]

Lol

[@williamrowlett740]

That's a businessman for you. No nonsense even to his mama.

[@maryjoobrienmoulding6298]

We toured his home I stood a few inches from where he died in his bed. The kitchen was amazing , a very simple older kitchen. I was shocked it wasn’t fancier.I think it was 3 Tv’s in a room I think his family type room where he watched news I’d guess. His wife had a separate bedroom more feminine. very interesting. Many of the square slabs outside with famous names signed who had been there. Beautiful area surrounding the home. A. Very pretty serene place.

JFK- Camelot's bad boy. He was both tender and brutal. He was handsome and clever. PS: The limo JFK rode in on that fateful day is in the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan.

[@Falling1100]

I’m from Texas and I lived during LBJ’s reign of horror. I can’t think of anything nice to say about him. Back in the 70s if he went teeny town around there and mentioned his name even the old people would spit on the ground. And he’s the one that started giving people free medicine, free, housing, free food that works too lazy to work and we’re still suffering from it

President Johnson made some really good decisions to help our Nation. Unfortunately, the war in Vietnam wasn’t one of them. Too many young lives were lost for nothing. Instead I like to focus on his positive achievements that the current GOP is trying to reverse on a daily basis. These safety nets are important to many Americans.

[@frankpaya690]

The mid-60s was when the Democrats started reaching- out to illegal aliens, behind the Democrats never-ending quest to be the sole political power. 1965- was when The surviving Kennedys ( mainly Teddy) pushed through the immigration reform act. The Kennedy's openly started reaching out toHispanics- once blacks "overcame". Today you're one of these people who apparently can't even do the simple math & realize how much more you're paying for everything since your idiot has been in office these last 2 years. It's not the multi-millionaires that are bankrolling illegal aliens, It's people like you, my useful idiot- "TOOL".

[@robinlanier6886]

He sucked.

[@draines9237]

Well, as a person of color, some of his policies and outbursts don't sit right with me. He made sure that the civil rights act was released. On the other hand, the programs he put forward only limited my people to achieve the "American dream." Instead of giving free programs that you know that minorities would rely on constantly, it should've been more education and technical opportunities implemented in that plan. It seemed like he wanted to keep blacks and other minorities in their place with these programs. When you say things like, "by the time I'm outta office, I'll have every negro voting Democrat lol" tells me that you knew it was easy to manipulate minorities at that time. But it is what it is 🤷🏾‍♂️

Hi Lamont! I really enjoyed this video. I have been up to the ranch and taken the tour. There was that story that he had some sort of car that could go on the roads and float in the Pedernales river as well. My dad was on duty as an Air Traffic controller in San Antonio on the night he passed away. I remember him calling my mom and letting her know that the breaking news that evening would state that former President Johnson was being flown to San Antonio for emergency medical care. My dad told my mom not to listen to that story because his plane had already landed at the airport and Lyndon Baines Johnson was already deceased. It was a matter of protocol to bring him to the nearest major hospital for declaration of death. In addition JFK had been riding around in a limo here in downtown San Antonio they day before he went to Dallas. Senator John Connally of Texas was also shot in the limo that day in Dallas but survived. Connally died much later and is buried in the Texas history cemetery in Austin, TX. Thanks for visiting my neck of the woods.

Your vlog was personally helped me understand the difference between my living through these events and your interpretations of historical events. I can not say I have experience an epiphany from your reporting, but similar to what is said about rumors, by the time the information has passed through several people, the events do not always resemble the actual facts as they occurred. And please do not take what I have said as criticism of the vlog. This is just my personal observations that I wanted to share.

My father was a flight engineer with the 89th Airlift wing in the mid to late 90s (the Squadron which fields air force one and two). When I was a kid I got a personal tour of SAM 26000, which was the plane that LBJ was sworn in on and JFK's body was returned to Washington upon. Upon the plane's retiring, my father lost a coin toss with a buddy to transfer it to Wright Patterson AFB in Ohio. So instead, he slipped his personal card behind the FE's panel so, in essence, he'd be with that plane forever

[@Falling1100]

JFK did not need LBJ. His family was part of the Irish mafia. And they use those ties to get the other mafia families to get him elected. Also, as far as LBJ is concerned, they always said that more people in the cemetery voted for him every time he was up for election of anything. That was the first time I ever heard that being a child of the 60s.

I remember this election as a young teenager and what I recall is President Kennedy selected Johnson as his V.P. because Kennedy needed Texas to win the election. One of the reasons Kennedy even returned to Texas when he was murdered, for the votes and support. It is also a theory that the government had something to do with President Kennedy assassination and the mafia, you should do a story on this one Lamont and the miracle bullet.
