Let's assume that the Warren commission showed culpability that LBJ had in the JFK assassination and he is impeached in 1964. LBJ has to address the country much as he did 4 yrs later and state he will not be running for Presidency. The next obvious Democrat to run is his VP. With the stain of his party's complicity in the murder, HHH is blown out and loses a landslide to Barry Goldwater in 1964. Was Goldwater really as extreme as he was made out to be? I mean after LBJ blasted him for being an interventionist extremist he sent 600,000 soldiers to Vietnam. So what would a Barry Goldwater foreign policy look like?

In just under a day you have managed to launch more than a dozen threads, all of them with virturally nothing to say.

That is classic spamming.

Now you have added this little jewel of JFK conspiracy lunacy.

Enough.

Take a breath, listen to the birds sing. Wrap a few gifts.

Take a week off and return better prepared for actual interaction instead of just tossing things at the wall in hope of getting something to stick.

Kicked.

I'm not sure about his foreign policy. He has to reward conservative Democrats who supported him. Since he (Goldwater) was largely disliked by moderate to liberal Republicans, a Goldwater victory could have rapidly led to re-alignment of the two major parties.
