  • Liz Carpenter-Unedited
    Liz Carpenter LBJ Lecture October 1, 1992 UNEDITED Remarks by President Jerome Supple Partially omitted . Several years ago, this Texas native gave up the Washington scene for a somewhat less frantic life in Austin. As she writes prolifically, arranges her speaking engagements, and entertains her friends, she entertains them in her favorite hangout—her hot tub. Which she says will hold eight Democrats or six Republicans. [audience laughs] When she turned sixty, which I think was a year or two ago [Carpenter laughs], Liz Carpenter says she took a vow: never to say no to an invitation because she might miss something fun. She’s probably had to say no since then. Were glad she said yes to us and accepted our invitation to give the Lyndon Baines Johnson Distinguished Lecture. Please help me welcome Liz Carpenter. Liz Carpenter Well, Dr. Supple, I am really honored to be asked to give this lecture. I thought you'd never ask and I think you did just in the nick of time because I’m 72 and I’m in the parts department and I’m down to one of everything. [audience laughs] So, I’m awfully glad I’m here this year. I do feel qualified. I knew Lyndon Johnson. He was a friend, we worked together, and I will tell you there was no one like Lyndon Johnson. He was the only one because nobody really could combine that mass of energy and vision that he did. And dreams, big dreams. And he believed, I think, and I like to put it this way, that in a democracy, government is the arrangements committee for the people.

For Electronic Copy on Compact Disc from the LBJ Library: Transcript, Barbara Jordan Oral History Special Interview, 2/5/85, by Elizabeth Carpenter, Electronic Copy, LBJ Library. What Barbara Jordan Is Thinking An Interview With Barbara Jordan by Liz Carpenter February 5, 1985 MS. Magazine inaugurates with this issue a new series called, "What Are You Thinking?" It is interviewing a variety of women whose names are news and whose impact is great. We begin with Barbara Jordan, Texas state senator from 1966-1972, congresswoman from Houston from 1972-1978. In Congress she made a national impact with her incisive questioning during the Watergate hearings. She came home to Texas to Austin, the University of Texas, in 1979 as a full professor, teaching political values and ethics at the LBJ School of Public Affairs. She now holds the LBJ Centennial Chair in National Policy and has added a second course on policy development. LIZ: MS. Magazine wants to know what you are thinking about these days, Barbara. BARBARA: There are a lot of things to think about and sometimes you can't really figure out how to get a handle on so many of the complexities that are surrounding us. We hear a lot about limits, about budgetary limits in the main, and so I spend some time thinking about how can we, as a people, afford to do the things which would make us comfortable.

Wright, NV5 Global, Inc. funded by a grant from the Organizing Partners The White House Transition Project The White House Transition Project (WHTP) was established in 1997 to provide information to incoming White House staff members so that they can hit the ground running. The project aims to streamline the transition process and enhance the staff’s understanding of key White House operations. The WHTP reports are written by presidential scholars from across the country who draft essays about past transitions and the inner workings of key White House offices. The reports have been produced for presidential transitions in 2001, 2009 and now 2017. The WHTP maintains an important international dimension by consulting with foreign governments and organizations interested in improving governmental transitions. http://whitehousetransitionproject.org/ Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy The mission of Rice University’s Baker Institute is to help bridge the gap between the theory and practice of public policy by drawing together experts from academia, government, media, business and nongovernmental organizations. By involving policymakers, scholars and students, the institute seeks to improve the debate on selected public policy issues in a nonpartisan manner and to make a difference in the formulation, implementation and evaluation of public policy, both domestic and international.
