Explanation: LBJ was an American president of the 1960s, whose domestic policies are generally well-remembered as building on the ‘welfare state’ of the New Deal, greatly reducing poverty and suffering amongst the US working class.

… his foreign policy is mostly remembered for the pointless and immoral Vietnam War, even lying about the military threat of North Vietnam to sell further US involvement to the public. In the Vietnam War, hundreds-of-thousands of Vietnamese and tens-of-thousands of American troops (many of them young conscripts) died in horrific circumstances for a horrific cause, and on top of that, without any serious idea of what we wanted to achieve or how we were going to achieve it.
