I agree with Caroline in that Path to War portrayed Johnson as sympathetic and frustrated. When he was in the kitchen with his wife though it was too over the top...I don't want to see the president so unable to control his surroundings, this made me dislike him. When he was told he made all the ultimate decisions and to basically stop bitching about what everyone else did to him I was glad, he had the opportunity to make the right decision.
The scene in church was important to me and very symbolic. Johnson brought hatred, fear and anxiety into such a calm and serene setting- just like he sent bombs, soldiers and guns into Vietnam.
