Why Johnson over Rocky?

Well this is without hindsight and I don't think LBJ had done much yet at that point for me to disapprove of him so the rally around the flag effect would probably cause me to vote LBJ.

1996 would be a terrible field for me, but I guess Perot is the least bad option. Maybe I'd write in Ted Kennedy.

I would've considered Weld (2020), Dole (1988), and Rockefeller (1968) but probably would've ultimately voted Democratic. Otherwise straight Democratic.
