JFK

He signed the Civil Rights Act 1n 1964. That ranks pretty high on list of
noble deeds.

That LBJ was at least the 2nd most corrupt President is probably true, and

But my NASA buddies (I am working about a mile from Langley at this

tell me that LBJ's passion for the space program was genuine and that he
was
responsible for persuading Kennedy to adopt the stated goal of the moon
landing in a decade.

It is probably the only noble thing he ever did.

Yeah, and when he signed it, he said the Democrat Party would *own* the black
vote for the next hundred years. In spite of the fact that the Civil Rights Act
was passed with more Republican support than Democrat.

There is nothing noble about a cynical politcal manuever.
