i enjoyed LBJs first state of the union address as juxtaposition to current era of other presidents state of the union addresses. i was blown away by lbj talking about "a war on poverty " imagine a president now like say Clinton or bush talking about a "war on poverty" that would never happen. it shows a era where the poor were actually thought about as people and talked about like they exist. this is a great insight into 60s social democrat politics
