Politics wells up in the wake of a late First Lady
Lady Bird Johnson, LBJ’s wife, passed away recently in Texas.
Ironically, JFK’s assassination in Texas gave her Texan husband the US Presidency automatically – just as Watergate gave Mr. Ford the Presidency later on.
Many remembered her political association with the Democratic Party.
The following is the sequence of events as they happened, following the news of her passing on:
Clintons, Carters, Laura and Barbara Bush, Nancy Reagan among those coming to Central Texas to pay respect to Lady Bird Johnson.
