The case against Lyndon B. Johnson and his role in Kennedy's assassination has never been sounder. LBJ aims to prove that Vice President Johnson played an active role in the assassination of President Kennedy and that he began planning his takeover of the U.S. presidency even before being named the vice presidential nominee in 1960.

Lyndon B. Johnson's flawed personality and character traits, formed as a child, grew unchecked for the rest of his life as he suffered severe bouts of manic-depressive illness. He successfully hid this disorder from the public as he bartered, stole, and finessed his way through the corridors of power on Capitol Hill, though it's recorded that some of his aides knew of his struggle with bipolar disorder.

After years of researching Johnson and the JFK assassination, Phillip F. Nelson conclusively shows that LBJ had an active role in JFK's assassination, and he includes newly uncovered photographic evidence proving that Johnson knew when and where Kennedy's assassination would take place. Nelson's careful and meticulous research has led him to uncover secrets from one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in our country's history.

Editorial reviews

Philip F. Nelson hopes to show that Lyndon B. Johnson played a major role in the Kennedy assassination, and unlike the baseless speculation and second-hand hearsay found elsewhere, Nelson grounds his claims with historical and biographical fact in a well-structured narrative that connects LBJ's youthful character flaws to the shady dealings in his early political life, and finally to the mentality that led him to - as Nelson asserts - assassinate JFK. Nelson is assisted in part by the convincing work of Fred Sanders, who is able to convey a believable curiosity and confidence while boldly implicating the 36th president.

Great narration. Content is not shocking to any who have studied this subject, though it is brought together nicely. It's a nice affirmation. It was a coup plain and simple. Yes. Right here in this country. Johnson was a certifiable socio/psycho-path. Hopefully a vetting system will be out in place for those running for the highest offices. Then again the people in power don't care. Enter the deep state. This game is not played by fair rules so don't just bitch about it. Get registered to VOTE. Get off the couch and actually vote. Arm yourself and become proficient . Lose your fear of death( yours and the other guys) and be ready to think and act for yourself.

Totally engaging all the way through, all the details that I wanted to understand especially about the motorcade are here. Exhaustive background on the early nefarious days of Johnson and how he pressured his way into the vice presidency even though Kennedy didn't want him.Information on the two rifles they found in the School Book Depository and how the evidence was obscured. It's all here . . .

Exhuastive and Complete

Just when you think you have heard it all…
I expected this to be a rather dry listen.
I was wrong. Some of the new information that seemed particularly outrageous caused me to research and cross reference as much as possible from my limited resources. Everything is confirmed by two or three other sources. Even if you can’t bring yourself to the conclusion that LBJ was behind the assassination, you certainly can not read this and come away believing LHO was the lone shooter.

Couldn’t stop listening!

Superb work. The facts cannot be denied! This book does the justice history has denied. At least where facts are concerned. They are undeniable.

It was a “lone nut” alright. LBJ and his posse!

I've never believed the Oswald story. This book presents a very compelling case that the JFK assassination was the brainchild of LBJ and a host of his cronies. I never knew what a megalomaniac LBJ was; I now see how it drove him into massive criminal activity that should have landed him in prison, not the White House.

Compelling!

Extremely well researched and documented indictment of a truly evil man who caused the death of millions. The repercussions of Johnson’s evil echoes throughout our history to the present with the corrupt deep state still installing incompetent leaders and attempting to get young Americans killed in wars under false pretenses.

Mandatory Reading for Every American
