15. No, Lyndon Johnson had that honour first.
He was here at the height of Vietnam protests, and there were a
lot of anti-war protesters out to greet him. There was one famous
incident where a group of protesters lay down in the road in front
of his car, and the then Premier of New South Wales, a slimy crook
named Bob Askin, told his driver to "run over the bastards".
