LYNDON JOHNSON – Although overshadowed by both John F. Kennedy and his brother Robert, who were both assassinated for their brazen support of civil rights for African Americans, Lyndon Baines Johnson not only continued their work in civil rights but extended the struggle to eradicating poverty and dedicating the nation to education for all. Committed to implementing his “Great Society” program, Johnson declared a “war on poverty” and launched programs such as Project Head Start, Medicare, Medicaid and food stamps that continue to assist all Americans, including African Americans. This matched with the countless civil rights legislation pushed through during his tenure gives Johnson an enduring legacy of action that is, unfortunately, mired by the controversy that still surrounds the Vietnam War.
