I don't excuse LBJ for Vietnam and I am sorry that you got wounded. I am in the US. However, you are deflecting. A majority of conservatives supported the Vietnam War at that time because we were fighting the Communists. Richard Nixon continued the war until 1975, 6 more years after LBJ left the office and longer than the 5 years he was the president.

LBJ deserved credit for passing the three acts I mentioned that helped to end the discriminations against black people, women and any group that had been facing discriminations in the past and to create Medicare that helps the elderly getting affordable health care. Based on what many Republicans have said in the last 50 years, I know that they don't like them and still want to weaken or abolish them.
