LYNDON BAINES JOHNSONBIOGRAPHICAL INFO▪1908-1973▪36th president of the United States▪Texas native▪Southwest Texas State Teachers CollegeCHRONOLOGY▪1960 – Johnson named VP for Kennedy▪1963 – Kennedy assassinated, Johnson named President▪1963 – Martin Luther King gives “I Have a Dream” speech in Washington ▪1964 – Civil Rights Act of 1964▪1965 – Voting Rights Act speech, March 15▪1965 – Voting Rights Act passed▪1965 – Johnson calls for American troops to Vietnam▪1967 – First Super Bowl▪1968 – Johnson announces he will not run for re-election▪1968 – Martin Luther King, Jr. assassinatedQUOTES“A complex convergence of presidential public persuasion, internal and external persuasive advice to Lyndon Johnson, increasing violence associated with civil unrest at home, domestic protest over the Vietnam War, and finally, the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. all conspired in time to make a once untenable public policy initiative a codified reality” (Goldzwig, 26).“The Vietnam War took its toll on the p resident’s popularity and political viability. It inevitably spilled over to his domestic agenda” (Ibid, 32).“A succession of summer riots during the president’s tenure was central to growing negative perceptions of his leadership. Simultaneously, the statistics on racial inequality continued to mount” (Ibid).“While the 1964 Civil Rights At may have had more symbolic influence and the 1965 Voting Rights Act may have had more lasting political significance, the 1968 Civil Rights At was vintage Johnson – a measure pressed for two years and then finally manipulated under duress by a relentless president intent on snatching victory from the jaws of defeat. Johnson’s achievement was one he could rightfully share with the nation” (Ibid, 47).“It was Lyndon Johnson’s political persistence in employing a rhetoric of transcendence that had finally challenged Americans to come to terms fully withand act justly in the arena that constituted one of the most sensitive and volatile domestic policy issues of the decade –fair housing” (Ibid)“President Johnson never relented and never looked back – save to savor ahard-won rhetorical and political battle” (Ibid)MARCH 15, 1965 –“We Shall Overcome”Background▪Johnson passes the Civil Rights Act in 1964▪By the end of 1964, the administration was working on legislation that would guarantee African Americans the right to vote▪However, “the president wanted to give the South time to ‘digest’ the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and he feared losing congressional support for the rest of his legislative plans” if he pushed for the voting act too early ▪Johnson showed signs, however, by Dec. 1964, that he was ready to move forward with voting rights legislation, and in his State of the Unionaddress in January, 1965, he stated:o“I propose that we eliminate every remaining obstacle to the right and opportunity to vote” (Pauley 31, from Public Papers of the President,Lyndon B. Johnson 1965 5).▪Throughout February, the administration “moved slowly and carefully on the purposed legislation. They realized that it was an important bill withsignificant ramifications, and, therefore, they did not want to act hastily”(Pauley 33).▪Sunday, March 7, 1965 changed everything when police and other law offices attached civil rights demonstrators in Selma, Alabama --- “BloodySunday”▪The president chose not to respond to the events right away.▪Everyone looked to the president for a rhetorical response▪The circumstances following Selma clearly constituted a “rhetorical situation”, which, in Lloyd Bitzer’s terminology, “invited discourse capableof participating with the situation and thereby altering its reality” (Pauley 35, from Bitzer 6).▪At the same time, the situation required legislation action as well, not just “mere rhetoric” (Pauley 35)▪The problem for Johnson – rhetoric and legislation were bound closely here. In order to speak, his legislation needed to be complete, which iswas not▪Thus, instead of speaking right away, the White House put the finishing touches on the Voting Rights legislation.▪Johnson did not decide to speak until the late evening of March 14, when, in a meeting with the congressional leadership, he decided to speak to ajoin session of Congress the following day. In this meeting, the Speakerof the House John McCo rmack “shifted the discussion towards rhetoricalconcerns, suggesting that the president deliver a voting rights message before a joint session of Congress, stating that a speech ‘would show the world that action is being taken’” (Pauley 37)▪The president stated: “I wanted to use every ounce of moral persuasion the Presidency held. I wanted no hedging, no equivocation. And I wanted to talk from my own heart, from my own experience” (Pauley 38, from The Vantage Point: Perspectives of the Presidency by LBJ, 164)▪Most scholars provide an oversimplified view of Johnson’s complicated public discourse and overlook this speech, and instance where everything that typically characterized LBJ was not there.▪“His most moving public address, conveying the natural el oquence that he so often took care to shield” (Pauley 26, from Zarefsky, “Lyndon” 224)▪“The strongest public discourse of Johnson’s presidency” (Pauley 26, from Edwin Black 24)EMOTION▪“Johnson spoke with force and compassion, drawing upon his personal ex perience and his ethos as a Southerner” (Pauley 26)TIMING▪“Timing was a central theme in his rhetoric” (Pauley 27)▪“Depending on one’s perspective, the president’s discursive involvement in the voting rights campaign seemed to be crisis rhetoric at its finest or at its worst” (27).▪“Johnson’s response to the voting rights crisis was unusual. He departed from his usual approach to rhetoric in two important ways.1. The legislation had been under consideration for some time andwas nearly finished when the crisis came.2. President Johnson not only was ready to speak to the immediatetactical issue of voting rights but also already had formulated hisown understanding of voting rights as a moral and historical issue”(27)▪The voting rights address shows that Johns on’s rhetoric was not always myopic.▪Johnson planned carefully his voting rights strategy; he considered both the legislative and rhetorical implications of speaking publicly about the voting rights bill.o Kairos– a timely response to a given situation.▪L BJ’s rhetoric was calculated carefully and coordinated closely with the development of social policy (Pauley 29)LANGUAGE▪The language of Johnson’s speech, not just its moment of delivery, also appealed to the urgencies of the moment (Pauley 38).▪Terms wer e used such as “no delay” and “no hesitation”...o“We ought not and we cannot and we must not wait another eight months before we get a bill. We have already waited a hundred yearsand more, and the time for waiting is gone”o“So I ask you to join me in wor king long hours – nights and weekends, if necessary –to pass this bill”▪His language also gave Selma a broader historical meaning by associating the terms freedom and equality with the terms purpose andpromise.TIMING▪LBJ’s timely response was a compl icated proposition.▪Although President Johnson’s speech was tactically timely, it was too little and too late for the rising militancy within the civil rights movement.Lyndon Johnson’s voting rights message on 15 March 1965 was timely,timeless, and, ironically, out of time – all at the same moment.Typical LBJ“The evaluation suggested by most scholars is that Johnson was a short-sighted, narrowly strategic presidential rhetorician”Quotes...▪Typically focused on the urgencies of the moment▪His rhetoric often was short-sighted.▪Opponents of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 had criticized Johnson for attempting to legislate by rhetorical appeals to temporarily arousedemotions, and opponents of the voting rights bill believed that 1965 was a repeat performance”▪Often spoke before he should▪His own discourse created most of his political problems.▪Not only was his rhetoric myopic, but it was also so idealistic as to be unrealistic▪He promised more than he could achieve, and thus aroused expectations and courted disappointment (29)▪He ignored the possibility that rhetorical alone might effect social change David Zarefsky - “Much of Johnson’s rhetoric provided a grand vision to solve social problems, but failed to provide specific recommendations because he had not yet formulated specific policy measures to deal with those problems” (Pauley 28, from “Great Society” 366). “His implicit theory of rhetoric...viewed it as a process of selecting strategies and tactics which would comprise an effective public appeal” (Ibid, 277). Zarefsky suggests that LBJ saw a limited role for rhetoric: he made judgments about the value and ability of his programs without any factual support, and simply used rhetoric to rally public support (Pauley 29).Jeffrey Tulis - LBJ used public rhetoric to garner support for his programs before he developed them fully” (Pauley 28, from The Rhetorical Presidency) Theodore Windt - LBJ’s rhetoric usually ran ahead of his policy planning...as a man of action, Johnson sought to solve problems immediately, without thinking them thr ough clearly. LBJ’s discourse was a sincere expression of a desire to help oppressed people, but came – unfortunately – before he had fully designed his programs or planned a long-term strategy (Pauley 28, from Presidential Rhetoric: 1961 to the Present).George Reedy (Johnson’s former press secretary) – Although the president was a brilliant political tactician, he was a poor strategist. Johnson could not look ahead, nor put political issues into historical perspective (Pauley 29, from Lyndon Johnson, A Memoir 52).Doris Kearns (historian and former White House fellow) – Johnson was more concerned with passing legislation than with deliberating great issues (Pauley 29, from Lyndon Johnson and the American Dream, 217-218).。

Celebrities Appeared in the Movie1. General Nathan Bedford Forrest (Ku Klux Klan)Nathan Bedford Forrest (July 13, 1821 – October 29, 1877) was a lieutenant general in the Confederate Army during the American Civil War. He is remembered both as a self-educated, innovative cavalry leader during the war and as a leading southern advocate in the postwar years. He served as the first Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, an organization which launched a "reign of terror" against blacks and Republicans during Reconstruction in the South.2. Elvis PresleyElvis Aaron (or Aron) Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was one of the most popular American singers of the 20th century. A cultural icon, he is widely known by the single name Elvis. He is often referred to as the "King of Rock and Roll" or simply "the King".3. Governor WallaceThe Stand in the Schoolhouse Door took place at Foster Auditorium at the University of Alabama on 11 June, 1963. George Wallace, the Governor of Alabama, in a symbolic attempt to keep his inaugural promise of "segregation now, segregation tomorrow and segregation forever" and stop the desegregation of schools, stood at the door of the auditorium to try to block the entry of two black students, Vivian Malone Jones and James Hood. The incident brought George Wallace into the national spotlight.4. PresidentsPresident KennedyJohn Fitzgerald "Jack" Kennedy (May 29, 1917 – November 22, 1963), often referred to by his initials JFK, was the 35th President of the United States, serving from 1961 until his assassination in 1963. He was the second-youngest President (after Theodore Roosevelt), the first President born in the 20th century, and the youngest elected to the office, at the age of 43. Kennedy is the first and only Catholic and the first Irish American president, and is the only president to have won a Pulitzer Prize.President JohnsonLyndon Baines Johnson (August 27, 1908 – January 22, 1973), often referred to as LBJ, served as the 36th President of the United States from 1963 to 1969 after his service as the 37th Vice President of the United States from 1961 to 1963. He served in all four federal elected offices of the United States: Representative, Senator, Vice President, and President.President NixonRichard Milhous Nixon (January 9, 1913 – April 22, 1994) was the 37th President of theUnited States from 1969–1974 and was also the 36th Vice President of the United States (1953–1961). Nixon was the only President to resign the office and also the only person to be elected twice to both the Presidency and the Vice Presidency.President FordGerald Rudolph Ford, Jr. (born Leslie Lynch King, Jr.; July 14, 1913 – December 26, 2006) was the 38th President of the United States, serving from 1974 to 1977, and the 40th Vice President of the United States serving from 1973 to 1974. As the first person appointed to the vice-presidency under the terms of the 25th Amendment, when he became President upon Richard Nixon's resignation on August 9, 1974, he also became the only President of the United States who was elected neither President nor Vice-President.President CarterJames Earl "Jimmy" Carter, Jr. (born October 1, 1924) served as the 39th President of the United States from 1977 to 1981 and was the recipient of the 2002 Nobel Peace Prize, the only U.S. President to have received the Prize after leaving office. Before he became President, Carter served two terms as a Georgia State Senator and one as Governor of Georgia, from 1971 to 1975,[2] and was a peanut farmer and naval officer.President ReaganRonald Wilson Reagan (February 6, 1911 – June 5, 2004) was the 40th President of the United States (1981–1989) and the 33rd Governor of California (1967–1975). He began a career as an actor, first in films and later television, appearing in 52 movie productions and gaining enough success to become a household name. Reagan left office in 1989. In 1994, the former president disclosed that he had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease earlier in the year; he died ten years later at the age of 93. He has been rated by scholars as one of the greatest U.S. Presidents.5. Bob DylanBob Dylan(born Robert Allen Zimmerman; May 24, 1941) is an American singer-songwriter and musician. He has been a major figure in popular music for five decades.[2] Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s when he was at first an informal chronicler, and later an apparently reluctant figurehead of social unrest. A number of his songs such as "Blowin' in the Wind" and "The Times They Are a-Changin'" became anthems for the civil rights[3]and anti-war[4]movements. His early lyrics incorporated a variety of political, social and philosophical, as well as literary influences. They defied existing pop music conventions and appealed hugely to the then burgeoning counterculture. Dylan has both amplified and personalized musical genres, exploring numerous distinct traditions in American song –from folk, blues and country to gospel, rock and roll and rockabilly, to English, Scottish and Irish folk music, embracing even jazz and swing.6. John LennonJohn Winston Ono Lennon,[1][2]MBE (9 October 1940 –8 December 1980) was an English rock musician, singer-songwriter and peace activist who rose to fame as one of the founding members of The Beatles. With Paul McCartney he formed one of the most influential and successful songwriting partnerships of the 20th century.[3] Second only to McCartney, he is among the most successful songwriters in Billboard singles chart history, responsible for 27 number one singles on the US Hot 100 chart as a performer or songwriter。

Mr. Speaker, Mr. President, Members of the Congress:I speak tonight for the dignity of man and the destiny of democracy. I urge every member of both parties, Americans of all religions and of all colors, from every section of this country, to join me in that cause.At times history and fate meet at a single time in a single place to shape a turning point in man's unending search for freedom. So it was at Lexington and Concord. So it was a century ago at Appomattox. So it was last week in Selma, Alabama. There, long-suffering men and women peacefully protested the denial of their rights as Americans. Many were brutally assaulted. One good man, a man of God, was killed.There is no cause for pride in what has happened in Selma. There is no cause for self-satisfaction in the long denial of equal rights of millions of Americans.But there is cause for hope and for faith in our democracy in what is happening here tonight. For the cries of pain and the hymns and protests of oppressed people have summoned into convocation all the majesty of this great government -- the government of the greatest nation on earth. Our mission is at once the oldest and the most basic of this country: to right wrong, to do justice, to serve man.In our time we have e to live with the moments of great crisis. Our lives have been marked with debate about great issues -- issues of war and peace, issues of prosperity and depression. But rarely in any time does an issue lay bare the secret heart of America itself. Rarely are we met with a challenge, not to our growth or abundance, or our welfare or our security, but rather to the values, and the purposes, and the meaning of our beloved nation.The issue of equal rights for American Negroes is such an issue.And should we defeat every enemy, and should we double our wealth and conquer the stars, and still be unequal to this issue, then we will have failed as apeople and as a nation. For with a country as with a person, "What is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?"There is no Negro problem. There is no Southern problem. There is no Northern problem. There is only an American problem. And we are met here tonight as Americans -- not as Democrats or Republicans. We are met here as Americans to solve that problem.This was the first nation in the history of the world to be founded with a purpose. The great phrases of that purpose still sound in every American heart, North and South: "All men are created equal," "government by consent of the governed," "give me liberty or give me death." Well, those are not just clever words, or those are not just empty theories. In their name Americans have fought and died for two centuries, and tonight around the world they stand there as guardians of our liberty, risking their lives.Those words are a promise to every citizen that he shall share in the dignity of man. This dignity cannot be found in a man's possessions; it cannot be found in his power, or in his position. It really rests on hisright to be treated as a man equal in opportunity to all others. It says that he shall share in freedom, he shall choose his leaders, educate his children, provide for his family according to his ability and his merits as a human being. To apply any other test -- to deny a man his hopes because of his color, or race, or his religion, or the place of his birth is not only to do injustice, it is to deny America and to dishonor the dead who gave their lives for American freedom.Our fathers believed that if this noble view of the rights of man was to flourish, it must be rooted in democracy. The most basic right of all was the right to choose your own leaders. The history of this country, in large measure, is the history of the expansion of that right to all of our people. Many of the issues of civil rights are very plex and most difficult. But about this there can and should be no argument.。

in this age when there can be no losers in peace and no victors in war, we must recognize the obligation to matchnational strength with national restraint. we must be prepared at one and the same time for both the confrontation of power and the limitation of power. we must be ready to defend the national interest and to negotiate the common interest. this is the path that we shall continue to pursue. those who test our courage will find it strong, and those who seek our friendship will find it honorable. we will demonstrate anew that the strong can be just in the use of strength, and the just can be strong in the defense of justice.
the dream of conquering the vastness of space, the dream of partnership across the atlantic -- and across the pacific as well -- the dream of a peace corps in less developed nations, the dream of education for all of ourchildren, the dream of jobs for all who seek them and need them, the dream of care for our elderly, the dream of an all-out attack on mental illness, and above all, the dream of equal rights for all americans, whatever their race or color. these and other american dreams have been vitalized by his drive and by his dedication. and now the ideas and the ideals which he so nobly represented must and will be translated into effective action.

the greatest leader of our time has been struck down by the foulest deed of our time. today, john fitzgerald kennedy lives on in the immortal words and works that he left behind. he lives on in the mind and memories of mankind. he lives on in the hearts of his countrymen. no words are sad enough to express our sense of loss. no words are strong enough to express our determination to continue the forward thrust of america that he began.
