  • Texas Bandits: a Study of the 1948 Democratic Primary
    Texas Bandits: A Study of the 1948 Democratic Primary Jason Matteson Jason, an undergraduate history major, wrote this narrative of a 20th-century political campaign and its implications for Dr. Mark White's upper division course on America in the sixties. Lyndon Johnson ranks among the most skilled and productive politicians in United States history. From 1937 till his last day as President in 1969, Johnson introduced, sponsored, or supported much of the most important legislation of the twentieth century. In 1948 though, Johnson's political career came a mere 87 votes away from an abrupt end. In one of the most studied elections in United States history, Johnson's star rose from the House of Representatives, in which he had been an energetic and effective member for 11 years, to a post in the more powerful Senate.(1) If he lost his Senate bid in 1948, he planned to return to Texas to devote time to KTBC, the radio station that he and Lady Bird owned.(2) Johnson ran for the Senate in 1941, with his House seat as insurance, after Senator Morris Sheppard died of a brain hemorrhage. But the stakes in 1948 seemed much higher as he would have to give up his seat in the House of Representatives to run. In 1948, Lyndon Johnson unleashed an aggressive, modern, and crooked campaign because his political career stood in the balance. In 1941, Johnson led by 5,000 votes through a count of 96% of the ballots. He ended up losing by 1,311.(3) From his defeat, Johnson learned a few very important lessons.

UpDEGROVE 11 ROBERT A. CARO 14 LUCI BAINES JOHNSON 22 WILLIAM J. VANDEN HEUVEL 24 MICHAEL BESCHLOSS 26 RANDALL B. WOODS 31 IRA KATZNELSON 39 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 43 H PREFACE In January of 2011, Roosevelt House Advisory Board member and President Lyndon Baines Johnson’s Chief Domestic Advisor Joseph Califano introduced the idea of a conference considering Johnson’s domestic legacy. We could think of no more fitting a venue than Roosevelt House, the former home of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. After all, President Roosevelt was President Johnson’s hero, and historians trace the inspiration for LBJ’s ambitious Great Society to FDR’s historic New Deal legislation. Roosevelt House, a landmarked double-townhouse on East 65th Street on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, was the historic New York City home of Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt and Franklin’s mother, Sara Delano Roosevelt. After Sara’s death in 1941, President Roosevelt was pleased to sell their home to Hunter College for use as a student center. An integral part of the College since 1943, the House has undergone an extensive renovation and reopened in spring 2010 as the home of the Roosevelt House Public Policy Institute at Hunter College. The transformation of Roosevelt House into a state-of-the-art facility for the College provides the first living memorial to Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt in New York City and an exciting opportunity to build on their far-reaching contributions to the nation and the world.

  • After Dallas B This Is the Fifth in a Series Excerpted from the Book My Brother Lyndon
    Reflections After Dallas b This is the fifth in a series excerpted from the book My Brother Lyndon. By San Houston Johnson At the moment President Kennedy was shot, I was hav- ing lunch with my brother-in-law, Oscar Bobbitt, at his home in Austin, Texas. It was also my home, for I had been living with him and my sister Becky since my retire- ment from government service in 1960. The telephone rang as we were about to have our soup, and Bobbi grabbed it off the cabinet near his chair. Almost instantly he let out a gasp and the phone nearly dropped from his trembling hand. His eye bulged with fright. "For God's sake, what happened?" I asked. "Lyndon's been shot," he said. "So has Kennedy." In those first hectic and confused moments, Rufus Youngblood had pounced on Lyndon in the second car and slammed him to the floor to protect him. The jolt had injured Lyndon, and he was still in pain when he got to the Parkland Memorial Hospital. Seeing him bent forward and holding his chest, some reporters naturally assumed he had also been shot. I was overwhelmed with a sadness so heavy I could hardly bear it. And it wasn't only Kennedy I was sorry for—I was also sorry for my brother, who had just taken over the most thankless job in the world. No job is more demanding or more onerous, more sub- ject to public abuse. The average citizen couldn't care less what the president of General Motors thinks or does; but the President of the United States can't even pull his dog's ears without raising a storm of criticism from a bunch of old ladies in tennis shoes.

He was assigned in 1948 to work in our campaign for the Senate. He and John worked up here; they had an office up here on the third floor of that old house we had. But then I never will forget, in 1951 when John Connally quit to come back and practice law with [Alvin] Wirtz, and I had to give up my lucrative practice of being a good-time boy down in Mexico and coming to work for Lyndon, one of the first things that [happened], here come the papers through for Charlie Herring to be federal district attorney. Not that this had any bear- ing, it just came through, and Lyndon said--I forget who the chairman was of the Judiciary Committee. Anyhow, I carried the papers over to the clerk of the committee. I said, "Expedite this, quickly." So Charlie was confirmed the next day, without any hearings. So Charlie, he and I were never real close, because I had--well, we were good friends, still are. In 1952--you see, it fits in like this, because this is funny.

  • Cloth, Clothing, and Cloth-Theft in Defoe's England Melissa Is a Senior
    Cloth, Clothing, and Cloth-Theft in Defoe's England Melissa Johnson Melissa is a senior history major who wrote this article for the lower division course, Historical Research and Writing, which is required of all history majors. Dr. Newton Key taught the course, which focused on the historical context and sources of Daniel Defoe's Moll Flanders. Daniel Defoe's famous novel Moll Flanders has been used by historians and literary critics alike to study early eighteenth century London, gender roles, the colonial trade, and the criminal world into which the heroine Moll sank.(1) The novel can also be used to reveal the role of textiles in early modern England.(2) Daniel Defoe uses cloth as a metaphor for many social transactions throughout Moll Flanders. The heroine's name, Flanders, even describes an illegally imported lace fabric while Moll herself steals cloth because it could easily be converted to cash. This paper focuses on the historical context of cloth, clothing, and the theft of cloth in the novel to argue that clothing represents the possibility of advancement within society, greed, and a readily available cash form. Was the second-hand clothes trade respectable in eighteenth century London? According to Beverly Lemire, although the trade mainly consisted of clothes obtained by legitimate means, thieves provided a large portion of the trade.(3) "Fashion ...inspired the theft of clothing on a massive scale by both amateur and professional thieves."(4) Madeleine Ginsburg, however, argues that "second-hand clothes dealing was regarded as a respectable and profitable way of earning a living, carried out by the clothes brokers and salesmen."(5) Ginsburg claims that personal servants brought the majority of second-hand clothes to the market.(6) Whether or not the theft of clothing was large scale, it became perpetuated by fashion obsession, greed, and the ease in transferring the stolen goods for cash.
