No. It was Hubert Humphery.
Johnson declared war on poverty. He did not win. He did not declare war on Vietnam but sent 500,000 troops there. He did not win.

Nixon liked football, he played to win. Johnson wanted to create a "Great Society" of peace, education and equal rights. Johnson "Hated" the Vietnam War. He refused to remain president anymore because of it. Nixon was ready to play "hard-ball", and he did.
Lyndon B. Johnson was the President of the United States when Robert Kennedy was assassinated. Vice President Hubert Humphrey would go on to win the Democratic nomination for president, eventually losing to Richard Nixon in the 1968 Presidential election.
Lyndon B. Johnson
By the end of Lyndon Johnson's administration, the Vietnam War was stalemated and unresolved. Half a million American soldiers were stationed in Vietnam but they were unable to prevent North Vietnamese infiltration of South Vietnam while the North Vietnamese army was unable to inflict any serious defeat on the American Army.
Part of the reason that Richard Nixon was elected to the presidency in 1968 was to end the Vietnam War. However, with that said, presidents Johnson and Nixon created for the US congress in foreign affairs a source of comfort and aid to the position of commander in chief. Neither president sought to involve the US congress in major foreign policy decisions. Here Johnson had given Nixon a headstart. The major difference with regards to the Vietnam war was that President Johnson had sought to win the war, while Nixon sought to end the war on his terms if possible.
