Andrew Johnson was a racist. He should have been buried wearing a white hood.

The woman is a female, regardless of what her birth certificate stated. To claim she is “officially” a male is specious and histrionic. She could have applied for a correction but apparently choses to live with the clerical error.

Johnson was no more a racist than Abraham Lincoln. Who said he was not for blacks and whites intermarrying and against giving the blacks the right to vote. Also, U. S. Grant owned slaves too, and said if he thought the Civil War was about freeing slaves, he would resign from the U.S. army and join the Confederate army! Don’t believe it? Do some research and don’t trust Hollywood!

My boy met a person one time that claimed he had no birth certificate – only a death certificate. When he was born, doctor did not expect him to live, so just filled out the death cert. Wonder if he ever applied for a passport?
