Join me as I explore the connection between Galveston and the political trajectory of Lyndon B. Johnson. I take a brief look into the significance of this fateful handshake, a moment that many historians consider the launching pad for LBJ's political career. This brief, post-fishing trip, photo op at the Port of Galveston between Franklin D. Roosevelt and Lyndon B. Johnson began a relationship that would shape American history.

JR, it is interesting how politicians connect to build their networks. LBJ was definitely a master at doing that.

Yessir!!!
How interesting, had no idea about this. Reminds me of how Bill Clinton was photographed shaking JFK’s hand.
A bit of an off subject remark, but I never realized how much bigger LBJ's ears are compared with JFK's. They're like twice as big...2:25. Good thing he didn't want to shake ears with JFK like he shook hands with FDR. Forgive me, I was just trying to Bee Fun Knee, on purpose.
