Initially, Harold Holt was popular, being an easy-going and affable Prime Minister. His popularity quickly waned with Australia's increasing involvement in the Vietnam War and Holt's seemingly indiscriminate following of US policies, regardless of their relevance to Australians. He was noted for that most unfortunate saying, "All the way with LBJ", referring to American President Lyndon Baines Johnson, and which signalled Australia's involvement in a war which had nothing to do with the country.
