Raise The Dead Justin Robert Young

Lyndon Baines Johnson is now the president of the United States. How far will he go to keep it that way.
Thanks to tapes LBJ made of his own phone conversations we get a view into history like we’ve never heard before on Raise The Dead. Power and paranoia on full display. His battles with old nemesis Bobby Kennedy lead a man on the brink of landslide to draft a letter of resignation. All the while, Vietnam looms is the distance.
Meanwhile, Barry Goldwater deals with a floundering campaign as a prime example of DC’s excess continues to fester.
All that and the birth of the modern television campaign ad in the season finale of Raise The Dead.

Meanwhile, Republican support begins pooling around upstart Barry Goldwater despite establishment worries that his brand of inflexible conservatism is irresistible to fringe groups like the John Birch Society.
After an unforeseen tragedy, Lyndon Baines Johnson takes charge.

At the end, both losing sides cry foul. So what is the truth about the election conspiracy of 1960? Did JFK really use illegal means to get elected? We explore in the season finale of Raise The Dead.
