I voted for(against) LBJ. Viet Nam was just a disgrace and virtually running Humphrey's campaign really planted the seeds of disaster for Democrats for years to come.

I have the feeling if Wilson were around today, he'd be very polarizing. What do you say about a guy who introduced formal diplomatic relations with European powers and getting involved in a war on European soil,  moves Washington warned against when he left office? What about his complete lack of recognition of minority rights? He certainly wouldn't fit in with the Democratic party today, or even the Republican for that matter.

I couldn't give the nod to Carter either. I think if people had actually listened to him and were mindful of things like energy conservation we'd be better off. He also took a serious hit on that rescue business although it wasn't his fault all together. He certainly seemed to be the wrong person for the job at that time.
