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.

When an amendment is proposed, who determines the method of ratification?
Llana [10]
The states and the congress. If a constitutional amendment is going to be ratified, first it has to get votes of support from 2/3 of both the house of representatives and the senate, after which it goes on voting in individual states, and if 3/4 of states ratify it then it becomes an official amendment of the constitution.

What happened in american factories during world war 2?
irina1246 [14]
I'd most likely say A, though they did discriminate since they were fighting this large-scale war, especially against the Japanese. But because this war was going on, they needed as much labor as possible. This was so they could have as much produced as possible, such as weapons and such.

I'm not sure if this is correct, so I'm sorry if it's wrong, but it'd be the one I choose.
Have a good day!
