Lyndon B. Johnson 36th President 1963-1969
Lyndon B. Johnson was born in August 27, 1908 in Stonewall, Texas. Johnson became president because of the assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy. Johnson's presidency was consumed by poverty, the Vietnam War and wanted to promote racial harmony. However the people wanted him to remove us from the Vietnam War. All of Johnson's efforts were immediately disliked by the nation. He was so upset over this that he did not even think of running for re-election. Johnson died on January 22, 1973 in San Antonio Texas.
