  • Book Review: Doris Kearns, Lyndon Johnson and the American Dream
    Book Review: Doris Kearns, Lyndon Johnson and the American Dream September 16, 2010 Teaching American History Year Three Final Paper Chuck Myrbeck P.O. Box 1325 Dennis Port, MA 02639 1 Lyndon Johnson and the American Dream, Doris Kearns first book, published three years after LBJ’s death, present one of the first drafts of history for our thirty‐sixth President. President Johnson chose the twenty‐five year old Doris Kearns from the White House Fellows program for his staff after he shocking announced to the nation that he would not seek another term as President of the United States. The choice surprised many since the Harvard doctoral candidate had coauthored an article critical of LBJ’s Vietnam policy in the New Republic titled “How to Remove LBJ in 1968”. After his Presidency ended, he asked her to live at the LBJ ranch and help him write his autobiography, The Vantage Point. Kearns spent long weekends and breaks from her teaching of government at Harvard at the ranch with Lyndon and Lady Bird Johnson. Their relationship lasted the last five years Lyndon Baines Johnson’s life. Thesis Doris Kearns attempts to analyze the childhood, look at the conflicting demands his parents put on him and see how the larger than life personality that emerged dealt with each stage of his political rise and fall. Famed developmental psychologist and Harvard professor Erik Erikson is referred to frequently. Johnson’s motives for giving such access to his personal recollections and papers in the final stage of his life lead to speculation. “Perhaps, even at the end, Lyndon Johnson was looking, planning, for some chance to achieve that place in history that meant so much to him” (Kearns, pg.

  • Lyndon Johnson and the Rise and Fall of the “Liberal Hour”
    “LET US CONTINUE” – Lyndon Johnson and the Rise and Fall of the “Liberal Hour” After Kennedy’s tragic death, Johnson addressed the Congress and urged members to pass Kennedy’s legislative agenda as a tribute to the slain president. This was the very agenda that the southern members of his own Democratic party had refused to support during the previous two years. Now, however, the grieving public responded positively to Johnson’s efforts to push the Kennedy agenda, and Congress, sensing that opposing the public mood could be politically risky, allowed his Civil Rights bills to come to a vote. Over the next two years, the landmark Civil Rights bills of 1964 and 1965 became law. The first ended segregation and empowered the federal government to enforce anti- segregation laws; the second gave black voters the protection of the federal government, making it a federal crime for white state and local officials to deny blacks their constitutional right to vote. Similarly, Johnson was able to convince Congress to pass Kennedy’s tax cut and to take up legislation intended to fight poverty. (This was the beginning of the “War on Poverty” – more associated with the Johnson administration, than the Kennedy administration, but part of the same liberal, activist approach to government that characterized the first half of the 1960s.) 1964-1965 marked the high point of post-World War II liberalism. When Johnson won a landslide victory in the presidential election of 1964, it appeared that liberalism had secured a place as the dominant political ideology in the United States.

    WHO WATCHES THE WATCHMEN WATCHES WHO WHO WATCHES THE WATCHMEN WATCHES WHO I see powerful echoes of what I personally experienced as Director of NSA and CIA. I only wish I had access to this fully developed intellectual framework and the courses of action it suggests while still in government. —General Michael V. Hayden (retired) Former Director of the CIA Director of the NSA e problem of secrecy is double edged and places key institutions and values of our democracy into collision. On the one hand, our country operates under a broad consensus that secrecy is antithetical to democratic rule and can encourage a variety of political deformations. But the obvious pitfalls are not the end of the story. A long list of abuses notwithstanding, secrecy, like openness, remains an essential prerequisite of self-governance. Ross’s study is a welcome and timely addition to the small body of literature examining this important subject. —Gabriel Schoenfeld Senior Fellow, Hudson Institute Author of Necessary Secrets: National Security, the Media, and the Rule of Law (W.W.

In his book, Mr. Ross does an excellent job identifying the categories of harm to the intelligence community associated NI PRESS ROSS GARY with these disclosures. A detailed framework for addressing the issue is also proposed. This book is a must read for those concerned about the implications of unauthorized disclosures to U.S. national security. —William A.

Ho Chi Minh had fled Vietnam in 1912. During his travels around the world, he embraced communism and had formed ties with the Soviet Union.

  • Working Title
    The University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire Department of History Two Giants, One War: Johnson’s and Nixon’s Relationships with the Media during the Vietnam War (1964-1972) History 489 Capstone Professor: Joseph Orser Cooperating Professor: Selika Ducksworth-Lawton By: Mandy Miller Eau Claire, Wisconsin December 2011 Copyright for this work is owned by the author. This digital version is published by McIntyre Library, University of Wisconsin Eau Claire with the consent of the author. 2 Abstract The Vietnam War was one of America’s longest wars, and it was also one of the most complex wars the United States had been involved in. While the battle was waging in Vietnam, people at home were, for the first time, able to see the military in action. Television news was fast becoming one of the nation’s leading ways to gather news information, and this created the idea that the press helped lose the war in Vietnam. While the impact of journalism during Vietnam is heavily contested, the viewpoints from Johnson’s and Nixon’s administrations regarding the press are very clear. Negative relationships between the press and both Johnson and Nixon brought forth the “credibility gap” between the media and the government. The relations between the government and the press during Vietnam would thereafter impact the way wars were reported. 3 Table of Contents Abstract_________________________________________________________Page 2 Table of Contents__________________________________________________Page 3 Introduction______________________________________________________Page 4 The Changing Role of Journalism During the Vietnam War________________Page 5 President Lyndon B.
