Lady Bird Johnson was the majority stock holder in Kellog Brown & Root. Brown
& Root, under the Johnson administration became the largest construction
company in America.


Brown & Root sold out to Halliburton, and Lady Bird had a majority of `that'
stock also. And her family probably still does, since Lady Bird still had her
Halliburton stock when she died in 2007.
