An uneasy, but productive partnership: Martin Luther King and LBJ

Martin Luther King and President Lyndon Johnson had an uneasy partnership, with some mutual suspicion on both sides.  Nonetheless, they did work together, and accomplished much.  On his birthday,  many of us wonder what would have been different had Reverend King lived beyond 1968.
