I am not 'contending' anything.

Truman was president for all but 3 months of Roosevelt's last term.

You seem to be claiming that John Kennedy never was president and that Lyndon Johnson held the 'presidency' from 1960 onward.

Wiping out the existence of Kennedy as president of the US doesn't quite fit with historical facts.

Johnson came in at the End of Kennedy's presidency.

In contrast Truman was president for almost FOUR years and presided over the ending of World War Two, made the decision to use atomic bombs on Japan, and had a VERY significant presidency during that almost 4 year period.

To equate that with LBJ finishing up Kennedy's last year doesn't jibe with a good familiarity with the history of the US presidency.
