Is it really dramatic? Then just put it in the main feed.
Is it chuddy? (Be honest.) Then /h/chudrama.
Is it from back in old boomer times or before?
This is the place for it.
Feel free to talk about history here at
whatever level of seriousness you feel like.

It's been said Nixon didn't wear makeup. He won among the radio audience, but lost the tv audience because he didn't look gay enough.
Kennedy, a strong closeted homosexual, knew the importance of gayness and said "Give me the full makeup. Lipstick. Mascara. Please."
And that's how jfk became president.

JFK won by a razor thin because of foids voting for the most handsome candidate and he gets lionized for having being assassinated. They did the same thing with Harding in 1920 (the first election they were allowed to vote).

I think if he wasn't
he'd be remembered as a pretty 
president.
LBJ god actually got shit done, but his peepee was too big for the office so he couldn't be reelected.

LBJ was quite remarkable indeed. He knew JFK's death meant Congress would handle them everything on a silver plate and he cunningly used that to his favor.
Apollo, the Civil Rights Act, the "Great Society" war on poverty plans, the Vietnam involvement.

LBJ's policies were a disaster for America. Fricking worst part of JFKs death

He's definitely a mixed bag. His "great society" programs are the most controversial (not including FoPo like Vietnam). I was just saying that he was an effective politician as in "getting what I want passed" regardless if those policies were good or trash.
!neolibs what's your assessment of Lyndon B. Johnson?

He definitely would've at the very least shitposted on /r9k/. Possibly /soy/ if he was a zoomer !soyteens. He seems real and modern in a way most presidents aren't.

Nixon also had a bad knee injury too. That's also why he sweated so much.

This is definitely bogus. There's no way those 1960s troglodytes could tell the difference on a 8x6 black and white TV. They look fine.
