Why are democrats today afraid of being associated with lbj

Lyndon B. Johnson counted on history to make the final assessment. "I hope it may be said, 100 years from now," he told the Congress as he departed Washington in 1969, "that we helped to make this country more just. That's what I hope. But I believe that at least it will be said that we tried."

The century he set for evaluation is still a long way off. But this year affords another opportunity. It is the centennial of LBJ's birth, an appropriate occasion to reflect on the life of the man who once loomed so large on the national stage—to reflect particularly on the five years of his presidency.

I hope I helped. 

They are afraid of being labeled “liberal” and they are afraid of being associated with Vietnam.

the constitution gives congress the power to regulate commerce "among" the several states.

the answer is a the rich and poor get an equal share of the power and wealth

hope this
