LBJ: The Mastermind of the JFK Assassination

By: Phillip F. Nelson

Narrated by: Fred Sanders

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.

Guilty.

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.

excellent read

loved it. lbj was a monster that was kept from the public. a great book will recommend it to my friends.

Perplexing and Interesting<br />

This body of work provides detailed background of the former President, lacking in specifics, however.

2025 in the white house: A Mirror of 1963

The characterological and historical accounting of LBJ (Linden B Johnson) from his early childhood inability to tell the truth, his erratic behavior, refusal to accept direction, corrupt pursuit of power at anyone’s cost but his own, could almost have been written as the personality and actions of DJT (Donald J Trump) with different casts and audiences. As the webs of deception and abuse of others and the law expanded from early business dealings onward, the tyrannical threats over others became a signature tactic conveyed as a to underlings and leaders alike that whatever he wanted they were going to get for him, or else. This progressively fed and reinforced his insatiable greed for more; more of everything and anything his infantile impulses conceived at any moment from gluttonous food consumption, gratuitous crudeness, sexual double standards, excesses, and greediness. With minimal true knowledge of nearly any of his claimed skill sets through actual education, the “brilliance” ascribed by others to both LBJ and DJT was rarely if ever through personal fortitude, but born of maniacal obsession with whatever his singularly self-serving goal of the moment.

They eerily share identical abject depravity of conscience and irrational entitlement taught/rewarded by their elders and successfully countered by none, witness the repeated overlooked scandals and rationalized crimes without accountability we learn of regularly these days.

Project 2025 might as well have been ghostwritten by LBJ from his 4+ year masterminding of JFK’s assassination, replete with absurd appointments to positions of influence for personal gain and protection, seduction and pay offs likely of high levels in many institutions including the likes of the CIA, FBI, many in congress, the courts and beyond. Déjà vu from 1960 to 2025, with perhaps different individual victims, but victimization en masse of the same collective, the American people.

Read/listen to Nelson’s incredibly thorough analysis of LBJ’s lifelong fostering and festering of deepening pathology throughout his life in service of his ego. Reflect on how 60+ years later we are reliving our parents’ and grandparents’ nightmare in Washington DC.

It’s as though LBJ has incarnated himself. The presidential election that he walked away from in the mid-60s is being embodied by our current president in DJT. It’s way past time to wake up America and stop waiting for the fox ravaging the hen house to loose his predatory instincts!

Pulls all the theories together

A must read. Should be a mandatory book for all college level American History classes.
