A.) The Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments had been ratified by the time Johnson became president.

C.) The Reconstruction policy had been put into place after Lincoln's death before President Johnson took office

If I'm correct I would say B because Andrew Johnson, was a southerner. As you can imagine this bitter irony was not lost on the Radical Republicans who hated him even before he was President. Johnson proposed a plan similar to Lincoln's. Suffice it to say, congress was not amused. The relationship between Lincoln and Congress soured quickly.
