I have not seen the Goldwater one in ages.

I worked for him in small store front headquarters in North Miami at least 20 hours a week for 8 months. I was 15.

I used to have a museum quality button collection 1898-2000 about 400 pieces.

When people talk about dirty politics, they apparently didn’t live thru this election when LBJ said if Goldwater was elected, he’d start a nuclear war. I also recall an editorial cartoon from that race that has stayed with me all these years.

I think the “Daisy Girl Mushroom Cloud” ad was broadcast only once but echoed dramatically. There is an anti Goldwater button depicting this. The irony is that at peak there were 500,000 US troops in Vietnam and LBJ got 36,000 soldiers killed in his presidency so who was the real war monger?

Exactly, but I feel LBJ did not seek re-election because of Viet Nam.
The cartoon I’m thinking of was a drawing of Goldwater throwing mud on JFK’s grave. Very distasteful.

I never saw that one. Chances are that RFK would have won the democratic nomination from sitting president LBJ in 1968 over Vietnam.

“Light Bulb” Johnson? You’d think that would be meant to imply that he had lots of good ideas? These buttons are really something, Carl. Thanks for sharing and educating – had never seen the likes of these before.

Civil Rights Act and Medicare milestones but Vietnam results of stubborn old man who did not want to be the first American president to lose a war.

You don’t see creativity like that any more..Not that, that is a bad thing..

The jokes are often the candidates nowadays not the buttons.

I should have researched and posted a few more.

Where did you get them Carl?

These are copies off the net but I used to have a museum quality collection, over 300 pieces 1896-2000. None of the particularly rare but decent representation for all candidates. Was probably worth $12,000. I donated it to the Masonic Home for the aged in Florida.

I don’t know who Goldwater was – my shame!!
