Lackluster LBJ

-disclaimer: I grew up in Austin and have been to the LBJ museum multiple times already in my life, so I may be a wee tad bit jaded by the whole thing-

While the approach to the museum promised an imposing architectural monument, it was the inside of the LBJ museum (specifically space devoted to Nam) that nearly put me to sleep. It was rather boring. It had roughly 20-25 solid feet of stuff on the Vietnam War, arguably the most important issue of his term and what ultimately cost him his second term. I know Texas likes to downplay our hometown dumbasses and how they mess up, but this was just ridiculous.

So, in keeping with the State of Texas' trend of appropriating inadequate historical space to the Vietnam War, I vote we jump on Jason's idea he talked about in his blog. We need to find out why (if possible) Texas seems to think Vietnam is such a distasteful subject that it nearly refuses to teach it in most high school and general college history classes.
