I would posit Wilson as #2 and Truman as #3.

LBJ comes in somewhere in the 5th to 9th position, depending on which study is cited. I would be willing to debate YOU on this matter.

Why? Name three enduring changes or initiatives by each of those two former Presidents.

LBJ has more than that just in the realm of civil rights.

Like the blood of countless Marines killed in Vietnam.

A larper wouldn't understand such things. Neither would a Fascist lover.

LBJ also died with more money than Obama or Biden, so he is definitely better at politics.

@Greyparrot
LBJ was also a racist. 


And his war on poverty is what caused the heightened increase (over time) of out of wedlock births among black girls and women. It’s what lead to fatherless black children and an increase in intraracial violence, as well as the home to prison pipeline. 

Yeah, some civil rights hero LBJ turned out to be. 🙄

Here is a cite from a work that places LBJ @ #10 overall, and @#6 among Dems.....United States Presidency Centre, UK Survey of US Presidents: Results: Total Scores and Overall Ranking Archived September 29, 2021, at the Wayback Machine.

I thought Biden made millions off the Chinese

A true leader. LBJ’s last interview before he died

Source? Or is this just the uninformed opinion of a dummy unemployed LCpl?
