Mention of LBJ on this thread - not by me - draws me to thoughts of Califano’s book, which I read recently.
Most American Presidentts have one or two pieces of legislation that are “theirs.”
LBJ had almost a hundred.
He trampled on the Constitution, yes, but he was in a clear line. Sometimes I look at the stars and the other day I thought of Orion’s belt: Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin Roosevely, Lyndon Johnson.
So: how did they do it?
BY FORCE OF WILL.
Moxie. Chutzpah. Determination.
In a word:
BALLS.
Trump has ‘em.
Cruz, who is smarter than Trump and would be a better President, has ‘em too.
Do you?
Does the “GOP”?
Do WE?
Cruz/Trump 2016
LBJ wasn't kidding when he said of his Great Society We will have those N_ggers voting Democrat for the next 200 years!
I don’t think Cruz is any different than the rest of them. I think he was assigned to play the role of the people’s hero.
