sors, who—except for = Dwight
Eisenhower — feltthat i a 1
"strong" President had to fight
with Congress. Always mindful
of the presidency's great pow-
ers, Johnson put into effect a
new relationship with the other
coequal branches of govern-
mient, thus achieving the truest
partnership with Congress, in
the checkis-and-balances sense
envisaged by The Constitution,
in well over a century. His re-
markable legislative rcord was
crowned by the historic Civil
Rights Act.
Worked constantly to win
business confidence for his
Democratic administration with-
out losing labor’s. The result
was an unprecedented exten-
sion of the national prosperity.
Pursued the elusive goal of
world peace while keeping U.
S. prestige high and U. S. poy-
er strong. He provided no
panaceas for chronic ailments,
but he met his major flare-up
crisis, that of the Gulf of Ton-
kin—“with just about the prop-
er mixture of force and cau-
tion.”
Strove tirelessly to achieve a
national consensus, earnestly
adding two phrases—“Let u s
reason together” and “I want to
be President of all the people”
—to the American political
lexicon.
“All this was done,” Time
says—“while his country and
the world watched in a 'show-
me’ spirit. Jack Kennedy had
drained the world’s capacity for
unrestrained fascination with
the U. S. presidency, and Lyn-
don. Johnson was sure to har-
vest some initial resentments.
But in that enormous goldfish
bowl, he went relentlessly to
work, determined to put his
own stamp on the presidency,
rarely trying to be anything
but himself.
“ 'Being himself' meant an
enormous change in style, hab-
its, thought, and operation of
umizes conflict and it gets
things done.” As Lyndon John-
son once said—"Let’s keep our
