I am not a fan of Graham... I was repulsed by his words when ol bjClinton was exposed as a pervert... But Brack might still be miffed that Graham endorsed Hillry as making a good president...

I have read that LBJ was the president Graham was closest to.... Graham sure never had a kind compassionate word for Nixon during the commies take down of him.

I'm surprised to find out that Billy Graham and LBJ were long-time friends. But Graham most likely grew up Democrat, and had that in common with Johnson.

I really don't remember it that way. Graham and Nixon were together a lot, especially early on in Nixon's White House years. Maybe Graham felt used. Maybe he was embarrassed by Nixon's recording their conversations, which were later made public during the Watergate. investigation. But I don't remember any hostility between the Nixon and Graham.

I guess Graham backed away from Nixon during Watergate. But that's understandable. Maybe Graham felt used.

I don't remember any overt hostility between the Nixon and Graham, though.
