Seriously, it was Zakaria's "recommended book" this week on his Sunday show and he actually recommended watching this movie instead, so I did. It's awesome and from a historical perspective I learned quite a bit. It also did a good job of providing insight into American politics during that timeframe and it was an interesting contrast to what (I think) is happening today.

I have it recorded and want to watch it this weekend. The greatest thing about LBJ. The lean and how he used it
