I really can't believe some of what I've been reading here today.

243. Johnson was "elected" president once.

He wasn't "re-elected." He was originally sworn in November 1963 when Kennedy was assassinated, so he ASSUMED the presidency. He ran for ELECTION in 1964, won, then refused to accept the nomination for RE-ELECTION in 1968.

I pretty much stop listening/reading when someone makes a blanket statement for 300+ million people. "We" don't wage anything "all the time." "We" don't make blockbuster movies celebrating war, certain film makers make them and SOME people go to see them.

With the possible exception of Nixon and Johnson, Washington, Lincoln and FDR had war thrust upon them.and we tried like hell to persuade the British to allow us independence. It was the British Parliament under King George III that refused. It was the British who fired first at Lexington and Concord. We DID NOT want to go to war but we were attacked and were forced to answer. The confederates fired first at Ft. Sumpter. That was under orders of Jefferson Davis, not Abraham Lincoln. In WWII Japanese bombed Peal Harbor. Again, WE weren't the aggressors. Kennedy inherited Viet Nam from Eisenhower and Johnson inherited Viet Nam from Kennedy. Nixon and Kissinger purposely kept the war going as a favor to the MIC and for political reasons (peace is at hand).

No rational person could possibly see the above wars/presidents/circumstances as being identical and certainly not placing us as the aggressors.
