Barry Goldwater was an extreme conservative. He criticized President Johnson's actions in Vietnam, saying Johnson "was gathering votes at home while the rest of the world burned". He ran against Johnson and lost...badly.
The progressive reformof the early 1900s that resulted from the work of Annie Webb Blanton was The Better School Amendment.
This amendment to the Constitution of 1876 was passed in 1920 thanks to the work of Annie Webb Blanton during her second term as State Superintendent of Public Instruction and with support from the Texas State Teachers Association.
This amendment removed the limitations on tax rates that local school districts allowed for the support of the local schools. The reform eliminated local tax limitations and also eased the state's burden of school financing by increasing local support. According to Annie, the local support had increased 51% in public schools during her tenure as State Superintendent of Public Instruction.
During her tenure, she also implemented a system of free text books, made efforts to improve rural education and raised teachers' salaries.
