Cute how people used to pose for videos. LBJ knew how to gain power over others by making them physically uncomfortable. Stripping down and invading their personal space
Such a bucolic scene; this, of course, is completely at odds with what was REALLY going on in Johnson's life at the time; read Robert Caro's "Master Of The Senate" if you want the real inside story.
Politics in this era was so much more interesting. What’s so sad about Lyndon Johnson is that he had the potential to be one of the greatest Presidents in this nation’s history. Everything was there - the will, the skill, the requisite force of personality to push through Congress the most important social legislation in a century. But, Vietnam…the mistake that ruined American’s faith in government and gave us crooks like Reagan and Nixon. What a mixed legacy.
Johnson argued with Kennedy on 22nd November, requesting his best friend Connally be moved out of Kennedy's limousine and that his arch enemy Texas democrat senator Ralph Yarborough be seated in Kennedy's limousine, Kennedy refused his request.
CBS (Frank Stanton) right there in the pool with LBJ. No conflict of interest at all when you’re with a Democrat president. Way to keep it classy and unbiased CBS.
I just love these old movies!
Fascinating look at various politicos relaxing and having fun.
I LOVE me some LADY BIRD....her voice is like honey to me....genuinely SWEET!
Lady. Bird ‘s Great 1960s voice very captivating
So relaxing watching these videos.
Isn't it?
We had a ranch just like him
My grandmother Amélita Johnson Téllez -LBJ's cousin.
Great grandfather Frank M. Johnson 🙂 good times!
That is fabulous!
My father was a cousin to Lady Bird, I have a picture of them when they were children.
I always loved the Johnson daughters for what they had to put up with.
Yes, it is! He was visiting LBJ after his heart attack.
“And there’s Bobby Baker . . . . “ (4.50, Lol!)
Uh oh.

...or maybe it was.
Just waiting for Bobby Baker to show up in this movie.
Is it known how much later Lady Bird Johnson recorded the narration?
Probably after he passed away. 1973 or so.
Didn’t see any buck tags on those bucks 😏
Any of those guys have out of state hunting license ?
Bobby Baker is the only one left.
He passed away a month or so after this comment
He like francisco franco is dead
LBJ only 47 years old here
This will be like watching Elon musk or Bill Gates when they get old what would they do with their wealth! I can't buy you love!

OMG!!! THEY ARE SO NOT KENNEDY'S!!!!!! JOHNSON WILL NEVER, NEVER, BE JFK!!!!
Yeah, Johnson was better.
Who said they were?
You mean Johnson didn't have multiple mistresses while being married? You're right, he was not a Kennedy.
See, you all still don't see that LBJ and h.w bush had something to do with JFKs assassination..
Why is that relevant or even a bad thing?
Great times with a (soon to be) great President!
who’s The Cutest President You Lyndon,Yes You Are Yes You Are❤️Jes You Are❤️
Is that Hubert Humphry?
Joe Williston .... It certainly is . And his wife and son.
Yes...and wife, Muriel.
