Answer:Lyndon B. Johnson

Trigésimo sexto presidente

Campaña

El vicepresidente Lyndon B. Johnson asumió la presidencia tras el asesinato del presidente John F. Kennedy en noviembre de 1963.

En su campaña electoral de 1964 Johnson declaró una "guerra contra la pobreza", retando a los estadounidenses a construir una "gran sociedad" y ganando las elecciones con más del 61 por ciento del voto popular.

Desafíos

Lyndon B. Johnson se ocupó de los disturbios raciales, así como de las protestas contra la guerra, dado que la guerra de Vietnam fue muy discutida. En 1968, los Estados Unidos tenían 548 000 soldados en Vietnam, 30 000 de ellos habían caído en combate. Las tasas de aprobación de Johnson, que rondaban el 70 por ciento a mediados de 1965, cayeron dramáticamente a menos del 40 por ciento en 1967.

Principales acciones

Lyndon B. Johnson implementó la Ley de Derechos Civiles de 1964, que prohibía la discriminación en el empleo basada en la raza, el género, la religión o el origen nacional. A esto le siguió la Ley de Derechos Electorales de 1965, que prohibió las pruebas de alfabetización y creó derechos de voto para todos, independientemente de su raza.

El 28 de julio de 1965 Johnson envió 100 000 tropas a Vietnam, emprendiendo una guerra cada vez más intensa.

Johnson fundó el Comité del Presidente para Personas con Discapacidad Intelectual en 1966.

Legado

Lyndon B. Johnson es en gran parte recordado por la Guerra de Vietnam, la guerra más impopular de la historia de Estados Unidos.
