My Boomer, RL elders will be proud of me. I know the Far Left weren't big fans of either Humphrey or "Tricky Dick." Because of the assassination Robert Kennedy was off the table. The outlier and closest to Trump today was Wallace and his main supporters were racist White Southerners. The reason Far Left people couldn't get behind Humphrey then was because he was too Liberal, they knew he would make promises and break them. 1/2
@lisaannlm What far too many don't realize is that once you're sworn in as President, you're taken to a room where the real powers behind the presidency tell you how the country will be run. The only thing the President and Congress have any power over is social issues. This is why people are angry at politicians who lie. They're not lying on the campaign. They have to lie once they're sworn in.
