Which is, of course, why Democrats were president during World War I, World War II, and Korea (as well for some of Vietnam, but that one was started by one Republican and finished by another), right?
A point well made, though I'd have to say that Johnson is the main reason so many Americans lost their lives in Vietnam and Nixon should be credited for getting America out. But other than that, yes, we did have Democratic presidents during both World Wars as well as the Korean War. Of course, with events like the sinking of the Lusitania and the bombing of Pearl Harbor, who in their right mind, Democrat or Republican, wouldn't declare war?
