Today is November 3, and on this date in history, in 1964, Lyndon Johnson, Democrat, the "peace candidate, defeated, in the presidential election, Barry Goldwater, the Republican.
This was the first presidential election in which I voted. I have posted this before. I am the cause of the Viet Nam War.
The Democrats stated that if I voted for Barry Goldwater, we would have war. I voted for Barry and sure enough, we had war.
The odious LBJ won in a landslide. Irishgit's review is very good on this election.
