    His book None Dare Call it Treason helped galvanize American Conservatives during the 1964 presidential campaign:

    Someone lent me a copy and I half read it. Everone knew LBJ was a crook but so what? JFK promoted him. I thought that the GOP would win in 1964 until Goldwater proved such an inept campaigner and chose the unknown Miller for V-P along with voting against the 1964 civil rights act along with the Democrats. I disliked Johnson's rules of engagement in Viet Nam and I disliked Nixon's economic policies. Carter's economy was even worse.

    I only recently learned that LBJ was KKK. LBJ had been a very poweful Senate majority leader during Ike's administration and had built a reputation as a moderate. No good but I never saw that it was treason.

    At my Mom's today and I couldn't find 'None Dare Call it Treason", but I found this:

    I skimmed it a bit. It's terribly dated. And wrong about many things. Example: "The communist plan for destroying America's will to resist can be thwarted only by a quick and decisive victory in Vietnam and by cutting off all trade and aid to the communist nations of the world." (pg. 50)
