LBJ got the drop on Kennedy. Wonder if J. Edgar Hoover tipped him off that he was going to be dumped.

He’s usually doesn’t get the credit, but LBJ is one of our worst presidents. Viet Nam, the war on Poverty... he really left one heckuva legacy. Not to mention that he was personally a lowlife on the order of Bill Clinton.

He said, 'Oh, God, can you ever imagine what would happen to the country if Lyndon was president?'" she said.

And now we know - a disaster.

He should have feared an LBJ vice-presidency.

She absolutely loathed LBJ and Ladybird. She considered them absolute hicks and not worth of being in her social caste strata. Jackie Kennedy was a real snob.

Do something to name someone else in '68.

Grandpa always said LBJ was the most crooked President in history.

Why would he make him VP if he feared his presidency? Even without the assassination, he was giving Johnson a leg up at being president.

Yep! The scenario presented in the 1971 film "Executive Action" remains persuasive.

Some TX Billionaire (Hunt?), gives the "Go" call to the Deep State hit team, (run by LBJ?).

LBJ's hate for Bobby Kennedy is well established.

Well Kennedy was no prize as he should have never really been President, many in Navy circles wanted to Court Marial him over PT-109 but his father had great influence. His election was more or less was bought by Kennedy money and the Mob’s...

“about ways to maneuver around Johnson”

In a regular old murder case any detective would consider this a MOTIVE.

I bet JFK thought those conversations about getting rid of LBJ were private.

J Edgar Hoover had him bugged for sure—and for sure told his buddy LBJ about the conversations.

Fatal Error.

There'es a photo somewhere that is worth a thousand words - JFK trying to restrain LJB from making a total ass of himself in public.

Someone will post it here soon enough.

Oh, and yes, in hindsight, JFK was right in that regard. There is a smart money hypothesis that JFK was indeed assassinated by the CIA on behalf of the MIC, who were Jonesing to go get into a war in Vietnam. JFK was opposed, LBJ was in favor... and already up to his eyeballs in it...
