Remember the song, "What Ever Happened to Hubert"?
Once he was vice president, Johnson pretty much left him in the outer waiting room, a forgotten man.
But I was jaded by Humphrey at the time. I felt he had gone wishy washy on issues that he should have been taking the lead in. So I voted for George S. McGovern.
But Jimmy Carter, like Bill Clinton, never conned me into believing they were even close to being Liberals...or Democrats, for that matter. Still, I did vote for both of them, given the lousy choices.
We are so far removed from a Liberal, People's Party that we really should be spending our efforts in building a strong opposition party. We could name it, The Patriotic Party of America.
