State Funeral
[Sincere question, no political motivation whatsoever]I heard on the news this morning that the last State Funeral for a President was LBJ in 1973, and I imagine the disgrace / resignation from office is why Nixon didn't get one.
1.) Have no other US Presidents died between 1973 and Saturday?
2.) If there were US Presidents that died in that time period, why didn't they get State Funerals?
3.) What entitles you to a state funeral? What do I have to do? [resume political bickering and inuendo]
